Chocolate roulade with lemon cream

This was our Christmas dessert, I would like share with you because is nice and easy. I love lemon with chocolate because is so delicious, or  with orange cream too.

And you can make this to every time when you like.

For dinner I made salmon with toasted almonds that you can see in labels (seafood)is nice  and a healthy recipe.

At side the salmon little soufle potatoes and salads,

And this roulade was the dessert and Ice creams that hubby bring, strawberry Ice cream and...Suspiro Limeño Ice cream, so  we  have had desserts for three days!!

Our Christmas tree! with some presents I wanna place the Christmas Crib (Pesebre) but the pictures were so darkness, was lovely too. I love Christmas Crib,.
The kids garnish the Christmas tree, thanks God!
We normally  leave all the Christmas garnish until the New Year or January 6 th when the Kings come! but we dont receive presents  to the Kings, only for Christmas...

The recipe

Ingredients (chocolate cake)

3 eggs
150 grs. plain flour
1/2 teaspoon of bicarbonate powder
150 grs. of sugar
100 grs. solid chocolate for melt
2 tablespoon of chocolate powder
pinch of salt

lemon cream

3 lemons juice
grated peel  of 1 lemon
3 yolks
1 cup whipped  cream
4 tablespoon caster sugar

Method

In a bowl beat the yolks with the sugar until is creamed.
Add the melted chocolate (to bain Marie in a pot over other pot with simmer water ) and then the powder chocolate with some water, mix well and incorporate the withes wipped with a pinch of salt,add the plain flour and bicarbonate powder. Mix well.
Greased a parchment  paper and place in a oven try. Over this empty the chocolate batter  and place at oven (medium heat  180° C)  by 10 minutes, no more.
Remove cake from oven, and immediately turn onto the paper and towel setup. (Put some confetionery's sugar in the towell)Brush with some water  the paper and will be more easy to peel.
Quickly remove the paper baking on the cake, and then using a serrated knife, trim off the edges of the cake that are crispy.

 Next, using the towel as a guide, roll up the cake from the narrow side, rolling the bottom piece of wax paper into the cake roll. Let sit with the seam side down to cool for 5 minutes. Then carefully unroll and leave to sit while you make the filling.

The filling

Place in a pot the  beaten yolks with the lemon juice , the lemon grated peel and the sugar. Stir until is thick. Whisk the cream and add the lemon juice cream when is chill.

Dust a large piece of non-stick baking parchment with icing sugar, turn the roulade out onto it and peel off the lining paper. Spread with the whipped cream and roll up like a Swiss roll.

Roll tightly to start with and use the paper to help. Don’t worry if it cracks - that is quite normal

Place on a serving plate and chill until ready to serve.
Garnish with pieces of chocolate.
