Ingredients
4 large eggs, room temperature
3/4 cup (150 g) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Powdered sugar, for dusting
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar (for filling)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for filling)
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup chopped fresh strawberries
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs on high speed for 4-5 minutes until thick and pale.
- Gradually add 3/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the eggs.
- Sift flour, baking powder, and salt together, and gently fold into the egg mixture until just combined.
- Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan and bake for 10-12 minutes until the top springs back when touched.
- Dust a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Invert the warm cake onto the towel, peel off parchment, and roll up with the towel inside. Let cool completely.
- For the filling, beat cream cheese, 1/4 cup sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
- Whip heavy cream to stiff peaks and fold into the cream cheese mixture. Gently fold in chopped strawberries.
- Unroll the cooled cake, spread the filling evenly, and re-roll the cake without the towel.
- Chill for at least 1 hour before serving. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
Notes
- Roll the cake while it’s still warm to prevent cracking.
- Can be made a day ahead for better flavor and cleaner slicing.
- Swap strawberries with other berries or add lemon zest for variation.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Use dairy-free substitutes for a dairy-free version.
