Stage 1-The Chocolate Cake
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F
*Line a cookie sheet/jelly roll pan with parchment paper allowing for an overhang on all sides
*In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients- flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt and set aside
*In another bowl, combine the egg yolks and sugar and whisk til combined
*Now combine the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until the chocolate batter is combined and set it aside
*Whip the egg whites in a mixer bowl on high speed until peaks form and then carefully fold into the chocolate batter
*Spread the chocolate batter into the lined pan and place in the oven for approximately 12 minutes
*While the cake is baking, prepare a waffle dishcloth by placing it flat and dusting powdered sugar liberally over its surface
(This will help absorb moisture from the cake and make it easier to roll up)
*Once the cake is out of the oven, carefully lift it out of the pan with the parchment and
flip it onto the prepared towel and remove the parchment paper slowly as to not break the cake and sprinkle more powdered sugar on the cake top
*Quickly roll the cake into a roll with dishtowel still intact and let cool on a counter
