Raspberry Coconut Jelly Roll Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Line a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan with waxed paper. Grease paper; set aside., Beat eggs 3 minutes. Gradually add granulated sugar; beat until mixture becomes thick and lemon-colored, about 2 minutes. Stir in water, 1 teaspoon almond extract and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. In another bowl, combine dry ingredients; fold into egg mixture. Spread batter evenly in prepared pan. , Bake until cake springs back when lightly touched, 12-15 minutes. Cool 5 minutes. Invert onto a kitchen towel dusted with confectioners' sugar. Gently peel off waxed paper. Roll up cake in the towel jelly-roll style, starting with a short side. Cool completely on a wire rack., Meanwhile, beat cream, confectioners' sugar and remaining extracts until soft peaks form. Refrigerate half of the whipped cream. Chop 1 cup almonds; fold into remaining cream. Unroll cake; spread with jam to within 1/2 in. of edges. Top with almond mixture. , Roll up again. Place seam side down on a serving platter. Frost top, sides and ends with remaining whipped cream. Refrigerate, covered, about 1 hour. Top with remaining almonds; serve, if desired, with raspberries and mint.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter bottom and sides of an 11-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet. Line pan with parchment paper and butter again. Dust with flour; tap out excess. In a small bowl, sift together flour and cornstarch.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg yolks, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, vanilla, and salt on high speed until thick and pale, about 3 minutes. Transfer egg-yolk mixture to a large bowl. Wash and dry mixer bowl and whisk attachment.
• Place remaining egg whites in mixer bowl, and whisk on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 1 1/2 minutes. With mixer running, slowly add remaining 6 tablespoons granulated sugar; continue whisking until stiff and glossy, about 1 minute more.
• Fold egg-white mixture into egg-yolk mixture. In three additions, sift reserved flour mixture into egg mixture, folding to combine after each addition. Transfer batter to prepared baking sheet, smoothing top with an offset spatula. Bake until light golden brown and a cake tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes.
• Run a knife around the sides of cake. Invert onto a kitchen towel dusted with confectioners' sugar; remove parchment. Lightly dust with confectioners' sugar using a sieve. Using the towel and starting at a short end, roll up cake and towel. Let cool completely, seam side down.
• Unroll cake. Whip cream until soft peaks form; mix in jam. Spread on top of cake, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Starting at a short end, roll up cake without towel. Wrap jelly roll cake in towel. Transfer to baking sheet, seam side down to maintain cylindrical shape. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes and up to 3 hours. Dust with confectioners' sugar before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Place a clean dish towel on a large cutting board and lightly dust all over with confectioners' sugar. Place the sponge cake on top of the towel, parchment side up; peel off and discard the parchment. Dust the cake lightly with more confectioners' sugar. Starting at one of the longer sides, loosely roll up the sponge inside the towel. Set aside the sponge while you prepare the filling. (This will "train" the sponge and make it easier to roll up after it's filled.)
• In a small bowl, mash together the fresh raspberries and raspberry jam until the berries break down; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine the heavy cream, mascarpone and kosher salt. Whisk vigorously by hand, or beat with a hand mixer on medium-high, until the mixture is thick and light, and holds a medium peak. Chill the bowl of whipped cream while you start to assemble the cake.
• Carefully unroll the cake so the short sides are to your right and left, and the longer sides near and away from you. Spread the raspberry mixture in a thin, even layer across the entire surface, leaving a border of about 1 inch along the longer side that's farther from you. Pull the cream from the refrigerator and dollop all across the surface of the cake. Spread it in an even layer over top of the raspberry layer, this time leaving a 1-inch border on each of the longer sides.
• Roll the cake back up, starting with the longer side closest to you and using the towel to help you (without rolling the towel into the cake). Wrap the towel around the cake, allowing it to rest on the seam. Transfer the cutting board to the refrigerator and chill until the cake has had a chance to absorb some of the raspberry juices and set, at least 1 hour.
• Remove the cutting board from the refrigerator and gently unwrap the cake. Use a serrated knife to trim off the ends of the cake, exposing a clean spiral. Use the towel and/or cutting board to transfer the cake to a serving platter. Dust with more confectioners' sugar, cut crosswise into slices with a serrated knife, and serve. The cake is best served the day it's made, but will keep, covered and chilled, for up to 3 days.
