Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 10x15 inch jelly roll pan by lining it with parchment paper and lightly greasing the paper.
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs on high speed for about 5 minutes, or until thick and lemon-colored. Gradually add the granulated sugar, continuing to beat on high speed. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
While the cake is baking, lay a clean kitchen towel on the counter and sprinkle it with powdered sugar.
Once the cake is done, immediately loosen the edges with a knife and turn the cake out onto the prepared towel. Carefully peel off the parchment paper.
Starting at one of the narrow ends, roll the cake and towel together into a spiral. Cool completely on a wire rack.
For the filling, open the chilled can of coconut cream, and scoop the solid cream into a bowl (discard or save the liquid for another use). Beat the coconut cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until it reaches a thick and creamy consistency.
Once the cake has cooled, unroll it gently and spread the coconut cream filling evenly over the surface.
Re-roll the cake (without the towel) and place it seam-side down on a serving plate.
Chill the roll cake in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before slicing and serving.
