Instructions:

Make the cake:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F/175°C. Line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with foil and spray with cooking spray (ideally flour).
  • In a mixing bowl, beat eggs on high speed for 3 minutes until foamy and dark yellow. Combine sugar, brewed coffee (or water), and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  • Mix in cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder, then gradually add flour until just mixed.
  •  Use a spatula to distribute the thin batter evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until it springs back when lightly pressed on top.
  • While the cake bakes, place a clean kitchen towel on a flat surface and sprinkle with ¼ cup powdered sugar.
  • When the cake is finished, quickly flip it out onto the prepared towel. Carefully remove the foil. Roll the cake from one short end, using the towel as a guide, and allow to cool entirely.

Make the filling:

  • In a mixing dish, combine the cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and beat until crumbly. Then, add the vanilla essence and 2 tablespoons of heavy cream. Mix until smooth, then add up to two more tablespoons of cream to achieve a spreadable consistency.
  • 8. Add ½ cup of chopped peanut butter cups.

Assemble the Cake

  • Step 9: Carefully unroll the cooled cake. Spread the peanut butter filling over the cake, leaving a 1-inch border at either end.
  • Roll the cake tightly and scrape out any spilled filling. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for at least one hour.

Make the topping:

  • Combine chocolate chips and 2/3 cup heavy whipping cream in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30-60 seconds and then whisk until smooth. Chill the ganache for 20 minutes or freeze for 10 minutes until it reaches a pourable consistency.
  • 2. Place the cake on a wire rack placed over a cookie sheet. Pour the ganache evenly on top and allow it to flow down the sides. Sprinkle with the remaining chopped peanut butter cups.
  • 3. Chill the cake for about 30 minutes to allow the ganache to harden.

Serve:

  • Slice and serve the cold cake roll. Enjoy!

Storage:

  • Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before serving.
