Instructions
Creating Sweet Strawberry Shortcake Cheesecake Rolls involves several easy steps. Follow these instructions carefully:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a parchment-lined baking sheet.
2. Make the Shortcake Batter:
– In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder, and salt.
– In a larger bowl, beat together the eggs and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
– Add milk and vanilla extract to the egg mixture, mixing well.
– Gradually fold in the dry ingredients until just combined.
3. Bake the Cake:
– Pour the batter into the prepared baking sheet, spreading it evenly.
– Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
– Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes.
4. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling:
– In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
– Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing until fully incorporated.
– Stir in vanilla extract and heavy cream until smooth and creamy.
5. Prepare the Strawberry Filling:
– In a separate bowl, mix chopped strawberries with granulated sugar and lemon juice.
– Let it sit for about 10 minutes to release the juices.
6. Assemble the Rolls:
– Dust a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar.
– Turn the cooled cake onto the towel, peeling off the parchment paper.
– Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the cake, leaving a small border.
– Scatter the strawberry filling across the cheesecake layer.
7. Roll the Cake:
– Starting from one end, carefully roll the cake using the towel to help guide it.
– Wrap tightly, then place seam-side down on a serving plate.
8. Chill the Rolls:
– Cover the rolled cake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
9. Slice and Serve:
– When ready to serve, remove from the refrigerator and slice into individual pieces.
– Serve topped with additional whipped cream and fresh strawberries, if desired.
