Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons butter
• 0.33 cups all-purpose flour , sifted
• 0.33 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
• 0.25 teaspoons fine salt
• 4 eggs , separated
• 0.75 cups confectioners' sugar , divided
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. 1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch jelly roll pan with 1 teaspoon butter and line with parchment paper. Grease parchment paper with 1 teaspoon butter.
2. 2 Whisk flour, cocoa powder, and salt together in a small bowl.
3. 3 Combine egg yolks, 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar, and vanilla extract in a bowl; beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until pale yellow, 3 to 4 minutes.
4. 4 Clean the beaters of the electric mixer. Beat egg whites in a bowl on medium-high speed until foamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually add 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar and beat until stiff peaks form, 2 to 3 minutes more.
5. 5 Fold egg yolk mixture gently into the egg whites. Fold flour mixture in gradually until batter is smooth.
6. 6 Pour batter into the prepared jelly roll pan and spread evenly with an offset spatula.
7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool, about 30 minutes.
8. 8 Combine 1 cup heavy cream, 3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, and sour cream in a bowl; blend with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until stiff, 1 to 2 minutes.
9. 9 Turn the jelly roll pan so the shorter side faces you. Spread whipped cream over the cake, leaving a 2-inch border at the top. Roll up cake toward the uncovered border, letting the parchment paper fall away as you roll. Place roll seam-side down on a serving platter.
10. 10 Place 1/2 cup heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until warmed through, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips. Let stand until chocolate softens, about 3 minutes. Stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until ganache is smooth and creamy.
11. 11 Drizzle chocolate ganache over rolled cake. Let stand until set, about 5 minutes. Run a fork through the ganache to create a tree bark effect.
