To make this Mint Chocolate Swirl Log, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint leaves
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract. Gradually add in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, until the batter is smooth.
Fold in the chopped mint leaves and chocolate chips. Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it out evenly.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
Using the parchment paper, carefully roll the cake into a log shape. Let it cool completely.
To make the chocolate swirl, melt the remaining chocolate chips in a double boiler or in the microwave. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the log, using a fork to create a swirl pattern.
Refrigerate the Mint Chocolate Swirl Log for at least 30 minutes before serving.
