Looking for the ultimate lemon and cake delight? This luscious lemon and cream roll recipe is light, zesty, and irresistibly creamy—a perfect treat for any occasion!





Ingredients:

For the Cake:

  • 4 eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)

For the Filling:

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp lemon extract
  • Zest of 1 lemon

Instructions:

1️⃣ Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
2️⃣ Whisk eggs and granulated sugar until thick and pale. Stir in vanilla extract.
3️⃣ In a separate bowl, sift together flour and baking powder. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture.
4️⃣ Add lemon zest and lemon juice, gently folding until just combined.
5️⃣ Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes until the cake lightly springs back when touched.
6️⃣ While baking, prepare a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar.
7️⃣ Once baked, invert the cake onto the sugared towel and peel off the parchment paper. Roll up the cake (with the towel) from the short end and cool completely.
8️⃣ Whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Add powdered sugar, lemon extract, and lemon zest, then whip until stiff peaks form.
9️⃣ Unroll the cake, spread the whipped cream evenly, and gently roll it back up without the towel.
🔟 Wrap the cake in plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour. Dust with powdered sugar before slicing and serving.
