Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the frosting
  • 200 g powdered sugar For mixing with cream cheese
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 8 oz cream cheese Softened
For the filling
  • 1 cup raspberry filling Fresh or store-bought
  • additional g powdered sugar For dusting

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a grand mixing bowl, combine the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and cream cheese. Beat on low speed until blended, then increase to medium speed until fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Once your sponge cake has cooled completely, carefully unroll it from its towel.
Assembly
  1. Spread the raspberry filling evenly over the cake, leaving a small border around the edges.
  2. Starting from one of the short ends, roll the cake back up tightly, seam-side down on a serving platter.
  3. Frost the rolled cake with the cream cheese frosting, smoothing it out with a spatula and piping decorative swirls if desired.
  4. Dust the top with powdered sugar before slicing and serving.

Notes

Serve chilled or at room temperature with aromatic coffee or spiced cider. Store tightly wrapped in the fridge for 3-5 days.
