Pandan Swiss Roll

After some measurement adjustments and trials, I finally reached the 'perfect' (to my liking) recipe for a Pandan swiss roll. This is light and fluffy. This is definitely a quick replacement for a Pandan chiffon cake. It is much easier and less time consuming to make, which is very convenient for me. Besides, it needs less ingredients and less people to finish it. You can also alternate the filling as per your own taste. I personally like to go for coconut filling.

This is my first attempt, where I went slightly overboard with the pandan extract. I really liked the texture of the cake, and the taste was very nice and flavoursome. Mysecond attempt was to cut down the pandan extract by 1/4 tsp and it turned out pale green as it should be.

Pandan swiss roll with coconut cream filling

One of my wish this year is to make swiss rolls. I want to try as many flavours as I can. Today, I tried my first one: pandan swiss roll. I used this recipe, but I used coconut cream as the filling instead. I also threw in some shredded coconut to make it more of a coconut pandan swiss roll. I rolled the cake lengthwise to make smaller slices and they turned out quite nice.The cake itself was nice and fluffy, but my only addition would be to add a teaspoon of baking powder to ensure that the cake rises properly and there is no tight layer. Other than that, everyone enjoyed it a lot.
