What if I told you that this swiss roll is totally fat free. Sugar free too. In fact, you can eat the whole thing in one sitting without worrying about adding a single centimetre to your waistline.
It tastes quite nice too. In fact the first one I made disappeared before I could take any photos!
It’s actually a Slimming World recipe this one. To make it a chocolate cake you need to add a Cadbury’s Hi-light Sachet (sometimes called Options)
Ingredients
4 medium eggs
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla essence
a tub of quark (250g)
3 tbsp of sweetener (level not heaped)
Raspberries
Method
- Separate the 4 eggs into two bowls, yolks and whites
- Add ½ tub of quark, sweetener, vanilla essence & baking powder to the yolks
- Wisk into a creamy consistency and put to one side
- Take the egg whites and wisk until stiff
- Add half of the egg whites to the egg yolk mixture and stir in gently
- Then fold the other half of the eggs whites into the mixture
- Take an oven tray, line line with grease proof paper and spray with fry light
- Ensure you use plenty of fry light to avoid the cake sticking to the paper
- Pour the mixture on the tray/paper
- Bake for 10 minutes until golden brown 180c (it doesn’t take very long to bake
- Whilst warm peel the paper from the cake (gently) and then lay cake out to cool
- I used a big knife underneath the paper to gently remove the cake from paper
- While cooling take the remainder of the quark and add sweetener to taste
- Spread the quark onto the cake (now cool) and add fruit you are using
- I used raspberries and added them evenly across the cake and squished them
- Then gently roll the cake up into a roll (like a swiss roll)
- Cut into 4-6 pieces – or eat the whole cake yourself
