Our Swiss-roll recipe features a silky whipped-cream filling that’s whisked with caramel,

then rolled up in a génoise cake that’s been brushed with bourbon-chocolate syrup. The effect?

Unbeatable flavor that’s nuanced and sophisticated.

Dark, rich, and delicious, chocolate cake is among the most indulgent desserts. Whether it’s

just like the simple sheet cake your mom used to bake or the fine-textured torte of the best

pastry kitchens, there’s a chocolate cake for everyone, and every occasion, in our collection

of six outstanding favorites. Some are timeless and classic; others are updated with a tasty

twist or two. Each is easy to put together and incredibly difficult—if not impossible—to resist.
