Ingredients
  

For the Cake
  • 3 large eggs (Room temperature) For that fluffy texture
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar Sweetness, of course!
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract Because what’s cake without a little vanilla?
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour The foundation of our cake
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder For depth and color
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking powder To help our cake rise beautifully
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt Tiny but mighty!
  • Powdered sugar To sprinkle, because we want it to look fancy!
For the Filling
  • 1 cup raspberries (Fresh or frozen) We won’t judge!
  • 1 cup heavy cream Whipped to perfection
  • 4 ounces white chocolate Melted—this is where the magic happens!
  • 1 tablespoon sugar To add a touch more sweetness

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and gently grease it.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and granulated sugar until frothy, about 10-15 minutes until it becomes pale and tripled in volume. Add in the vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry mixture into the egg mixture.
  4. Pour the batter into your prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for about 12-15 minutes until it’s spongy to the touch.
  5. Prepare a damp kitchen towel with a dusting of powdered sugar. Once the cake is out of the oven, invert it onto the towel. Peel off the parchment and roll the cake along with the towel. Let it cool completely.
Making the Filling and Assembly
  1. In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream and sugar until soft peaks form. Fold in the melted white chocolate.
  2. Gently fold in your raspberries into the fluffy mixture.
  3. Unroll the cooled cake and spread the filling evenly, leaving a little space at the edges. Roll it back up without the towel and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Chill for an hour.
  4. Dust with more powdered sugar, slice, and serve with extra raspberries.

Notes

Feel free to substitute any berries if raspberries aren’t your thing. If your roll cracks, it can easily be hidden with whipped cream and berries. For best results, chill the filled cake for longer.
