For the cake:
1/3 cup cake flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/3 tsp salt
4 large eggs, separated
1 cup granulated sugar, divided
confectioners' sugar
For the filling:
1 8oz container of frozen whipped topping, thawed
Making the cake:
1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line a 15-x 10-inch jelly roll pan with waxed paper. Grease and flour lined pan; tap out excess.
2. In a medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix well. In a separate bowl, using an electric mixer set on medium speed, beat egg yolks and 1/4 cup sugar until fluffy.
3. In a small bowl, using clean beaters, beat egg whites on high until foamy. Gradually and 1/2 cup sugar, beating until stiff, but not dry, peaks form.
4. Fold 1/3 beaten egg whites into egg yolk mixture. Alternately fold in remaining whites and flour mixture. Pour batter in pan; smooth top. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 15 minutes.
Rolling and filling the cake:
1. Dust a clean cloth with remaining sugar. Turn cake out onto prepared cloth; remove waxed paper. Trim the cake's edge.
2. Starting with a long side, tightly roll up cake with cloth. Transfer cake, seam side down, to a wire rack to cool.
3. Unroll cake; remove cloth. Spread whipped topping over cake to within 1/2 inch of edges. Re-roll cake; place seam-side down on a plate. Dust with confectioners'sugar before serving.
