How to Make Raspberry Cake Roll

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 15x10x1-inch baking pan. Line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the long sides to aid in rolling.
  2. In a large bowl, beat 4 large egg whites with 1 teaspoon lemon juice and a pinch of salt until soft peaks form.
  3. Gradually add 1 cup granulated sugar, beating on high speed until stiff, glossy peaks form.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup all-purpose flour and 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
  5. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg white mixture in thirds, ensuring not to deflate the batter.
  6. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
  8. Immediately invert the cake onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Carefully peel off the parchment paper.
  9. Starting from the narrow end, gently roll the cake and the towel together, then set aside to cool completely.
  10. **Prepare the filling:** In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons whipped topping until smooth.
  11. Gently fold in 1 cup whipped topping.
  12. Once the cake is completely cool, carefully unroll it.
  13. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the cake, leaving a ½-inch border.
  14. Sprinkle 1 ½ cups fresh raspberries over the filling.
  15. Using the towel, gently roll the cake again, this time removing the towel as you roll.
  16. Place the cake roll seam-down on a serving platter.
  17. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  18. Garnish with remaining raspberries and lemon zest before serving. Enjoy!
