Giant swiss cake roll
Cakes
Taylor always talks about the "good old days" back in elementary school, when he would scour car seats, jacket pockets, couch cushions and the school grounds hoping to find to stray change. When he managed to scrounge together two quarters, he'd head straight to the school lunch counter and buy himself a two-pack of Swiss cake rolls. This constituted a really good day for young Taylor. He doesn't eat them often nowadays, knowing that they are filled with who-knows-what-kind-of-preservatives, but that doesn't stop him from fondly reminiscing of his childhood snack and the effort it took to get them. I decided to treat his inner child and bake him a giant homemade version of this nostalgic treat. (And boy, you should have seen his face light up when I sliced into this baby!) It's decadence with a touch of nostalgia: dark chocolate cake rolled up with a fluffy marshmallow filling and coated with a dark chocolate glaze. Call it a grown up version of the snack-size treat, both bigger in
