  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Equipment

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a jelly roll pan (15×10 inches) with parchment paper and lightly grease.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, sugar, and baking powder.
  3. In another bowl, beat eggs until thick and pale; mix in milk and vanilla.
  4. Gently fold the egg mixture into the dry ingredients until combined.
