Ingredients

Scale

Sponge Cake

  • 4 large Eggs (separated)
  • 3/4 cup Sugar
  • 1 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1/4 cup Pistachio Paste or Ground Pistachios
  • 2 tablespoons Butter (melted)
  • Pinch of Salt

Cream Filling

  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tablespoons Chopped Pistachios or pistachio paste

Optional Garnishes

  • Chopped Pistachios
  • Powdered Sugar
  • White Chocolate Glaze

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Batter: Separate the eggs. Whisk the yolks with sugar until pale and creamy. Fold in the pistachio paste. Sift together the flour and baking powder, then gently fold into the egg yolk mixture. Beat the egg whites to stiff peaks and fold them in gradually to keep the batter light and fluffy.
  2. Bake the Sponge: Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and spread the batter evenly for uniform thickness. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when touched lightly. Take care not to overbake to keep the sponge moist.
  3. Roll the Cake While Warm: Immediately invert the baked sponge onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Remove the parchment paper and gently roll the cake with the towel from one short edge to the other to ‘memorize’ its shape and prevent cracking.
  4. Prepare the Cream Filling: Whip heavy cream with vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Fold in chopped pistachios or pistachio paste for added texture and flavor. Keep the whipped cream chilled until ready to use.
  5. Assemble and Chill: Carefully unroll the cooled sponge and spread the whipped cream filling evenly over the surface, leaving a small margin around edges. Reroll the cake snugly but gently. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and chill for at least one hour to set and meld flavors.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for better mixing and smoother batter.
  • Fold the batter gently to preserve air bubbles and maintain a light sponge texture.
  • Roll the cake while still warm to prevent cracks during assembly.
  • Chill the assembled roll thoroughly to help it maintain its shape when slicing.
  • Lightly toast pistachios before use to enhance their flavor.
