Gradually add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Add chocolate mixture to beaten whites, folding in carefully. Spread batter into prepared pan. Bake 14 to 16 minutes or until top springs back when touched lightly. Invert onto towel sprinkled with powdered sugar; carefully remove foil. Immediately roll cake and towel together from narrow end; place on wire rack to cool.

    filling. Re-roll cake. Drizzle with Glaze. Cover; refrigerate about 6 hours before serving. Garnish with remaining peppermint patties, cut in half, before serving. Cover; refrigerate leftover cake.

    Glaze: Melt butter in small microwave-safe bowl. Add powdered sugar, hot
