This refreshing dessert requires no baking, and the combination of crunchy nut base and fine ness cream will delight your taste buds. Let's see together how to prepare it step by step!

Preparation time: 30 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes
Number of servings: 8

Ingredients:

For the nut base:
- 200 g ground nuts
- 4 eggs
- 100 g sugar
- 1 packet of baking powder
- A pinch of salt

For the ness cream:
- 250 g mascarpone
- 200 ml whipped cream
- 2 tablespoons of ness (or instant coffee)
- 100 g powdered sugar
- 1 vanilla essence

For decoration:
- Ground nuts or grated chocolate

Instructions:

1. Preparing the nut base: Start by separating the egg whites from the yolks. Beat the egg whites with a pinch of salt, gradually adding sugar until you achieve a firm foam. In another bowl, mix the yolks with the ground nuts and baking powder. Gently fold in the beaten egg whites using a spatula to maintain the aeration of the mixture.

2. Preparing the pan: Place plastic wrap on a rectangular tray (approximately 30x20 cm) and pour in the nut mixture. Smooth the surface and refrigerate for 20 minutes until it slightly hardens.

3. Preparing the ness cream: In a bowl, whip the cream with the powdered sugar until you achieve a firm whipped cream. In another bowl, mix the mascarpone with the ness dissolved in a few tablespoons of warm water and the vanilla essence. Carefully combine the two mixtures using a spatula until it becomes a smooth cream.

4. Assembling the cake: Remove the nut base from the refrigerator and spread the ness cream evenly over its surface. Carefully roll it up with the plastic wrap to form a roll, being careful not to damage the cream. Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for another 30 minutes.

5. Serving: Once it has set, remove the nut roll cake from the refrigerator, unwrap it, and slice it. You can sprinkle ground nuts or grated chocolate on top for a more attractive appearance.

Helpful tips:
- You can replace the nuts with hazelnuts or almonds for a different flavor.
- Add a splash of rum or coffee liqueur to the cream for a more intense taste.
- The roll can be kept in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days, but it is best enjoyed fresh.

This nut roll cake with ness cream is an ideal dessert for any occasion, from parties to family gatherings. It is easy to prepare, and its rich taste will surely impress. Enjoy it with a cup of coffee or tea and delight in culinary indulgence!

This cake recipe features a cream based on raw egg yolks. If you are not a fan of these creams, you can make it using a double boiler; the consistency will change slightly and the coffee will dissolve. Base: Mix the egg, cocoa, and powdered sugar, then add the chopped nuts (I toasted them a bit in the oven) and the rum. This results in a thick mixture. Coffee Cream: Whisk the egg yolks with the coffee and powdered sugar. Add the butter in small pieces. Assembly: Grease a piece of parchment paper the size of a rectangle with a layer of butter. Spread the thick dough on top. Then spread the coffee cream over the same size rectangle. On top of the coffee cream, spread a thin layer of jam (I used cherry - you can use whichever you prefer) and roll it up using the parchment paper. The Roulade Cake recipe was proposed by dora_m.
