A delightful strawberry cream roll cake filled with fresh strawberries and whipped cream, perfect for any occasion!
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- Red or pink food coloring (optional, for decoration)
Instructions
- Prepare the Cake: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 10×15 inch baking pan with parchment paper. In a large bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, and vanilla extract until thick and pale. Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold this into the egg mixture. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the cake is lightly golden.
- Roll the Cake: Once baked, turn the cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Remove the parchment paper and roll the cake gently with the towel from the short end. Allow it to cool completely while rolled.
- Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Carefully unroll the cooled cake and spread the whipped cream over it. Place the sliced strawberries evenly over the cream. Roll the cake back up without the towel. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Frost the Cake: Whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until medium peaks form. Add food coloring if desired. Spread the cream evenly over the roll and decorate with additional strawberries if desired.
Notes
- Ensure the cake is rolled while warm to avoid cracking.
- Chilling the roll before frosting helps maintain its shape.
- Adjust the sweetness of the filling and frosting to your preference by varying the sugar amount.
- Use fresh and ripe strawberries for the best flavor.
