How to Make Cream Cheese Roulade

  1. In a large bowl, beat the cold heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold in the softened cream cheese and honey until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder.
  3. In a clean, dry bowl, beat the egg whites with 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  4. In another bowl, beat the egg yolks with the remaining 1/4 cup of granulated sugar until pale and fluffy.
  5. Gently fold the egg yolk mixture into the egg white mixture until just combined. Then, carefully fold in the dry ingredients until a smooth batter is formed.
  6. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a jelly roll pan (approximately 15x10 inches) with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to help with rolling.
  7. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 4-5 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Carefully remove the cake from the oven. Immediately invert the cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Gently peel off the parchment paper.
  9. Starting from the short end, tightly roll the cake and the towel together. Let it cool completely for about 10-15 minutes.
  10. Unroll the cake and spread the prepared cream cheese mixture evenly over the surface.
  11. Re-roll the cake into a log. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 3-4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
  12. Before serving, dust with powdered sugar, frost with your favorite frosting, decorate with fresh cherries, or enjoy it as is! Slice and serve.
