Step-by-Step Instructions for Easter Cake Roll
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Grease lightly.
  2. In a large bowl, beat eggs and granulated sugar for about 3 minutes until pale and thick.
  3. Fold in vanilla extract, then sift and gradually add flour, baking powder, and salt to the egg mixture.
  4. Spread batter into the prepared pan and bake for 10-12 minutes until springy and golden.
  5. Dust a towel with powdered sugar, invert the cake onto it, and roll it up while warm. Cool for 30 minutes.
  6. Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  7. Unroll the cake, spread whipped cream evenly, add sprinkles if desired, and roll back up without the towel.
  8. Melt white chocolate, drizzle over the cake, add more sprinkles, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
