A Roll Cake Recipe:
Vanilla Roll Cake (Just the roll, no filling)
Ingredients
4 eggs
¾ cups sugar
¼ cup water
1 teaspoon vanilla
¾ cup flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
Powdered sugar, for dusting
Directions
Heat oven to 375℉.
In a medium bowl beat together eggs and sugar with a hand mixer until thick and pale yellow.
Continue beating, add in the water and vanilla.
Add the dry ingredients and mix to combine.
Line a 10x15 baking sheet with parchment paper.
Smooth the batter into the baking sheet.
Bake for about 12 minutes until golden.
Lay out a tea towel dusted with powdered sugar.
As soon as you take the cake out of the oven, flip the cake upside down onto the tea towel. Peel off the parchment paper. Immediately roll up the cake with the tea towel as tightly as possible without cracking it. Let cool completely.
