Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (unbleached)
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 2 cups fresh strawberries (sliced)
- 8 oz cream cheese (full-fat)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (pure)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 15×10 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and spray lightly with cooking spray.
- In a mixing bowl, beat eggs and sugar until pale and fluffy (about 5 minutes). Gently fold in flour and baking powder until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and springy.
- Invert the cake onto a powdered sugar-dusted kitchen towel, peel off parchment, and roll tightly from one short end while warm.
- For the filling, beat cream cheese until smooth, then mix in whipped cream, sugar, lemon juice, and vanilla until velvety.
- Unroll the cooled cake gently, spread cheesecake filling evenly on top, add fresh strawberry slices, then roll tightly again. Chill in the fridge for at least an hour before serving.
