Method
First, make the chocolate-coffee cream. Combine the chocolate, butter, and instant coffee in a bowl, and melt in the microwave in 15-second bursts, stirring in between.
Add the heavy cream to the melted mixture and mix until smooth. Chill in the refrigerator, stirring every 5 minutes to ensure even setting.
Prepare the sponge cake base. Beat the softened butter with sugar for about 1 minute, add the eggs, and beat for another 5 minutes or so. Finally, fold in the Greek yogurt.
Combine the dry ingredients: wheat flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and baking powder. Mix them into the egg mixture.
Spread the batter thinly onto parchment paper and bake at 170 °C for about 10 minutes. Transfer the hot sponge onto a towel dusted with powdered sugar or cocoa, roll it up, and let it cool.
Unroll the cooled sponge, spread with berry jam and the cream, and roll it back up. Trim the end to form the log shape, frost the top with the remaining cream, decorate, and serve.
