Strawberry Shortcake Cheesecake Roll (Print Version)

Light cake wrapped around creamy center and sliced strawberries for a fruity, indulgent treat.

# Ingredients:

→ Sponge Cake

01 - 125 g all-purpose flour
02 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
03 - 0.25 teaspoon salt
04 - 3 large eggs
05 - 150 g granulated sugar
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
07 - 60 ml milk
08 - Powdered sugar, for dusting

→ Cheesecake Filling

09 - 225 g cream cheese, softened
10 - 60 g powdered sugar
11 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 - 240 ml whipped cream (prepared or homemade)

→ Assembly and Garnish

13 - 150 g fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat oven to 175°C. Lightly grease a 38x25 cm jelly roll pan and line with parchment paper.
02 - In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In a separate large bowl, beat eggs and granulated sugar until mixture is thick and pale. Incorporate vanilla extract and milk, mixing until smooth.
03 - Fold dry ingredients gently into the egg mixture until just combined. Pour batter evenly into prepared pan. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until lightly golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
04 - While hot, sprinkle a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Invert baked sponge onto the towel and remove parchment paper carefully. Roll up sponge with the towel from the short end and allow to cool completely.
05 - Beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in whipped cream until well combined.
06 - Once sponge is cool, unroll gently. Spread cheesecake filling evenly over sponge, leaving a 1 cm border. Arrange sliced strawberries atop the filling. Carefully re-roll sponge without the towel. Wrap roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
07 - After chilling, slice the dessert roll into pieces. Optionally, garnish with additional strawberries or whipped cream before serving.

# Notes:

01 - Rolling the sponge while warm ensures flexibility and prevents cracking. Allow the roll to fully cool before adding the filling.
