Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries (sliced)
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until pale and fluffy.
  3. Gently fold in the flour, baking powder, and salt until just combined.
  4. Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, smoothing it out evenly.
  5. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. The cake should spring back when lightly touched.
  6. Turn the cake out onto another piece of parchment paper and roll it up gently while still warm.
  7. In another bowl, whip the cream cheese until smooth, then add powdered sugar and vanilla extract; fold in whipped cream until combined.
  8. Unroll the cooled cake, spread an even layer of filling on top, then add fresh berries.
  9. Carefully re-roll the cake tightly without tearing it; wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least an hour before slicing.
