Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Sponge Cake
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar using an electric mixer for 3-5 minutes until pale and fluffy.
- Add the vanilla extract and vegetable oil, mixing gently.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt, then fold it into the egg mixture.
- Gently mix in the milk until combined, being careful not to deflate the batter.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Tap the pan lightly to remove air bubbles.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the cake is lightly golden and springs back when touched.
Step 2: Roll the Cake While Warm
- While the cake is still warm, dust a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar.
- Turn the cake out onto the towel, then carefully peel off the parchment paper.
- Gently roll the cake from the short side into a log, using the towel to help. Let it cool completely.
Step 3: Make the Cheesecake Filling
- In a bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
- Gently stir in the diced strawberries.
Step 4: Make the Strawberry Shortcake Crumble
- Crush the Golden Oreos into small crumbs.
- Crush the freeze-dried strawberries into a fine powder.
- Mix both together, then stir in the melted butter until combined.
Step 5: Assemble the Cake Roll
- Carefully unroll the cooled cake.
- Spread an even layer of strawberry jam over the surface.
- Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the jam.
- Gently re-roll the cake, peeling away the towel as you go.
- Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Step 6: Coat the Cake with Crumble
- Remove the chilled cake from the fridge.
- Spread a thin layer of whipped cream on the outside of the roll.
- Press the strawberry shortcake crumble onto the cake, covering it completely.
Step 7: Slice and Serve
- Slice the roll into 1-inch thick pieces.
- Garnish with fresh strawberries and whipped cream if desired.
- Serve chilled and enjoy!
