Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 4 large eggs
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat eggs on high speed for 5 minutes until thick and pale. Gradually add granulated sugar and vanilla, beating until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold into the egg mixture until just combined.
- Spread batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
- Immediately invert the cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Carefully peel off the parchment paper. Roll the cake in the towel starting from the short end. Let cool completely.
- In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Unroll the cooled cake and spread the whipped cream evenly over the surface. Top with sliced strawberries.
- Gently re-roll the cake without the towel. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
