Here’s a simple and delicious way to make a cream cheese roll—soft, slightly sweet, and perfect for tea or dessert:
🍰 Cream Cheese Roll (Soft Swiss Roll Style)
Ingredients:
For the sponge:
- 4 eggs
- ¾ cup sugar
- 1 cup flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 2–3 tbsp milk
For the filling:
- 200g cream cheese (softened)
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 2–3 tbsp cream (optional, for smoother texture)
👩🍳 Instructions:
1. Make the sponge:
- Beat eggs + sugar until light and fluffy
- Add vanilla and milk
- Gently fold in flour + baking powder
- Pour into a lined baking tray (thin layer)
2. Bake:
- Bake at 180°C for 10–12 minutes (don’t overbake)
3. Roll while warm:
- Turn cake onto a clean cloth or baking paper
- Roll it up gently while still warm (this prevents cracking)
- Let it cool in rolled shape
4. Prepare filling:
- Beat cream cheese + sugar + vanilla until smooth
5. Assemble:
- Unroll cake
- Spread cream cheese filling evenly
- Roll it back tightly
6. Chill & serve:
- Refrigerate for 30–60 minutes
- Slice and enjoy
✨ Optional variations:
- Add strawberry or mango jam with the cream cheese
- Sprinkle crushed biscuits or nuts inside
- Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle chocolate on top
If you want, I can give you a no-bake cream cheese roll (using biscuits) or a chocolate version too.
