I was trying to replicate an effect like this one here but unfortunately, the chocolate chips were stucked onto the parchment paper when I tried to peel it off. The cake turned messy and ugly. It didn't occur to me that chocolates melt. I need to give myself a slap *piak*
DS2 loves this cake and requested for me to pack some for his school teachers but I explained to him I'll bake a nicer swiss roll for his teachers next time, I promise.
The texture of this cake is soft and fluffy. DS2 had 2 slices and DD1 ate 1 as she had just finished her lunch. DD3 is still taking her nap so no chance to try it yet ;-)
