Strawberry Swiss Roll
I have always enjoyed eating these but only recently started making them as I didn't realise how easy it was. Cream and strawberries rolled in a thin sponge cake.
Ingredients
Serves: 12
- Sponge
- 4 egg yolks
- 1/3 cup (90g) sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 4 egg whites
- 25g icing sugar
- 75g flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- sugar, for rolling
- Filling
- 200g thickened cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 500g strawberries, diced
Directions

Ready in:35min
- Preheat oven to 200 degrees C. Line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Sponge: Whisk the egg yolks, sugar and vanilla in a bowl until fluffy with a hand mixer.
- In another bowl whisk the egg whites with the icing sugar until stiff then pour into the bowl with the egg yolk mixture.
- Mix the flour with the baking powder then sift over the egg whites. Mix everything carefully with a whisk. Don't stir it too much.
- Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes.
- Sprinkle a tea towel with sugar and carefully invert the finished sponge onto it. Remove the baking paper then roll the sponge up and let it cool.
- Filling: Whisk the cream with the vanilla then fold in the strawberries.
- Gently roll apart the sponge and spread with the strawberry-cream mixture. Roll up again in the refrigerator and allow to set.

Very easy method with a great result. More of a sponge swiss roll than a roulade (due to the flour added), but all who ate it enjoyed it! Served 8-10 generous slices. - 18 Aug 2013 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)

Very easy and quick to make. Yes, it is more of a sponge than a roulade, but it was very much appreciated! I added a fresh strawberry sauce and it completed it perfectly. In my case it just managed to serve a decent slice for 9 people, but no seconds..! - 15 Sep 2015 (Review from Allrecipes UK & Ireland)
