For 8 portions

Ingredients

For the dough:

200 g baby sponge biscuits
150 g powdered sugar
3 tablespoons cocoa
100 ml cold brewed coffee

For the cream:

125 g butter
50 g powdered sugar
3 tablespoons coconut

For coating:

grated coconut as needed

Preparation procedure

Dough preparation: Grind the baby sponge biscuits into a fine powder. Add the powdered sugar and cocoa and pulse briefly again. Finally, gradually pour in the cold coffee until you obtain a moist, pliable dough.
Forming the base: Spread the cocoa mixture onto plastic wrap into a rectangle about 1 cm thick. Smooth the surface and place it in the refrigerator for a while so the mixture firms up and is easier to work with.
Cream preparation: Whip the butter with the powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add the coconut and mix into a smooth cream. Spread this cream over the chilled cocoa layer.
Rolling and chilling: Using the wrap, carefully roll the roulade, wrap tightly and let it set in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. After it has set, coat the entire roulade in grated coconut and slice into pieces.
