Step 7.  Lay out a clean tea towel and sprinkle ¼ cup cocoa powder onto the surface of the towel.

Step 8.  Invert the cake onto the cocoa-covered towel and peel off the top piece of parchment paper. Roll up carefully inside a towel and let it cool while you make the filling.

Step 9.  In a large bowl, beat the whipping cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.

Step 10.  In another large bowl, beat together the cream cheese, sweetener, salt, and vanilla until smooth.

Step 11.  Using a spatula, fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.

Step 12.  After the cake has cooled for at least 20 minutes, unroll the cooled cake from towel, spread on the filling, and roll the cake back up.
