Ingredients
- 📌 3 large eggs
- 📌 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 📌 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 📌 1/4 cup cornstarch
- 📌 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 📌 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 📌 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 📌 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 📌 Jam or preserves of your choice (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar together using an electric mixer or stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mixture is light, fluffy, and forms ribbon-like trails when the beater is lifted.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and salt.
- Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, being careful not to overmix. Pour the batter into the prepared jelly roll pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown and springs back when lightly touched.
- Immediately after removing the cake from the oven, run a knife around the edges to loosen it. Carefully flip the cake onto a clean, damp kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar.
- Carefully peel off the parchment paper. Starting from the short end, tightly roll up the cake with the towel, creating a spiral shape. Allow the rolled cake to cool completely on a wire rack.
- In a medium bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Carefully unroll the cooled cake and spread the whipped cream evenly over the surface. If desired, add a layer of your favorite jam or preserves on top of the whipped cream.
- Gently reroll the cake, removing the towel as you go. Slice and serve chilled, dusting with additional powdered sugar if desired.
