Delight in these luscious rolls that blend creamy cheesecake with fresh strawberries, wrapped in a light sponge cake for a perfect dessert.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs (room temperature)
- 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup (95g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup (60g) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy cream (whipped to stiff peaks)
- 1 1/2 cups fresh strawberries (diced)
- 2 tablespoons strawberry jam (optional, for extra shine)
- Whipped cream (for serving)
- Sliced strawberries (for garnish)
- Mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and granulated sugar until pale and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract, then gently fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it evenly. Bake for about 15-20 minutes until it springs back when touched.
- Once baked, let the cake cool for a few minutes. Sprinkle some powdered sugar on a clean kitchen towel, invert the cake onto it, and roll it up from one end while it’s still warm.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. Fold in the whipped cream gently.
- Unroll the cooled cake and spread a layer of the cheesecake filling evenly across. Sprinkle the diced strawberries over the filling before rolling it up again.
- Drizzle with strawberry jam, and serve sliced with whipped cream, extra strawberries, and mint leaves.
Notes
For variations, consider using different jams, or try mascarpone instead of cream cheese for a creamy twist. Make sure to cool the cake completely before adding the filling.
