• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• ¼ cup milk
• 2 tablespoons melted butter

Chocolate Banana Filling:

• 1 cup chocolate chips
• 1 ripe banana, mashed
• 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Sponge Cake

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 15x10 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract together until light and fluffy.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
4. Gradually add the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, alternating with the milk and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared jelly roll pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
7. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
8. Dust a clean kitchen towel with cocoa powder and carefully invert the cake onto the towel.
9. Peel off the parchment paper and roll the cake up in the towel, starting from the short end.
10. Let the cake cool completely while still rolled up.

Step 2: Make the Chocolate Banana Filling

1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
2. In a separate bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth.
3. Combine the melted chocolate and mashed banana, mixing well.
4. Add in the milk and mix until a smooth and spreadable consistency is achieved.

Step 3: Assemble the Swiss Roll

1. Unroll the cooled sponge cake and spread the chocolate banana filling evenly over the surface.
2. Carefully roll the cake back up, this time without the towel.
3. Wrap the rolled cake in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
4. Before serving, dust the swiss roll with cocoa powder and slice into pieces.
