Ingredients

Scale

For the Sponge Cake:

4 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Cheesecake Filling:

8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream

For the Assembly:

1 cup fresh strawberries, sliced
Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Sponge Cake: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 10×15 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Beat the eggs and sugar until pale and fluffy, about 6-8 minutes. Fold in the sifted flour, baking powder, salt, and vanilla extract. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden and springy.
Cool the Cake: Turn the baked cake onto a kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Roll the cake with the towel inside and let it cool completely.
Make the Cheesecake Filling: Beat the cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form and fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
Assemble the Rolls: Once the cake has cooled, unroll it gently. Spread the cheesecake filling evenly and layer with sliced strawberries. Roll the cake back up carefully.
Chill and Decorate: Wrap the cake in plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with extra strawberries before serving.
