INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Adjust rack in lower third of oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a
10 by 15- inch jellyroll pan with aluminum foil, leaving a 2 inch overhang
at each short end.
Mix the ground nuts with cocoa, spices, salt and pepper in a small bowl. In
a large bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar to combine. Rest the bowl in a hot
water bath that is hot to the touch, about 120 degrees. Whisk egg and sugar
mixture until it reaches about 100 degrees. Remove the bowl from the water
bath and whip mixture in a heavy-duty mixer at medium speed until it is
light ivory in color and very fluffy, about 6 minutes. Add the vanilla
extract during the final minutes of whipping. Fold in half of the ground
pecan mixture until incorporated and then fold in the remaining half. Pour
the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake 8 to 11 minutes
or until the cake is set on top and springs back when lightly pressed in
the center.
Remove pan from the oven, run a knife around the edges to loosen the cake
from the sides of the pan. Lift the cake by the foil overhang to remove
from pan and transfer to a wire rack. Cover the cake with a sheet of
aluminum foil, folding the foil in a tent-like fashion so that it does not
stick to the cake but keeps the moisture in while the cake cools. Cool for
30 to 60 minutes. Lift the cake in its foil off the wire rack to the work
surface. Allow ice cream to soften. Spread it evenly over the cake with an
offset metal spatula all the way to the edges except for one of the long
edges of the rectangle, leave about an inch before reaching that edge.
Starting with the opposite long edge of the cake, roll the cake off of its
foil until it forms the shape of a log. Wrap the roll securely in aluminum
foil and freeze. Remove cake from freezer 30 minutes before serving. Remove
foil and slice with a serrated knife. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before
serving.
