Cake
Powdered sugar
6 large Land O Lakes® Eggs, separated
1 cup sugar
14 cup Land O Lakes® Unsalted Butter, melted, cooled
1 12 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 teaspoon salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
Red gel food color, as desired
Filling
1 cup Land O Lakes® Heavy Whipping Cream
1 (1-ounce) square white chocolate
6 ounces fresh raspberries, lightly crushed
2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint leaves
STEP 1
Heat oven to 375ºF. Line 15x10x1-inch baking pan with parchment or waxed paper; grease paper. Set aside.
STEP 2
Arrange clean towel onto counter; sprinkle generously with powdered sugar. Set aside.
STEP 3
Place egg whites into bowl; beat at high speed until foamy. Continue beating, gradually adding 1/4 cup sugar, until glossy and stiff peaks form. Set aside.
STEP 4
Combine egg yolks, remaining 3/4 cup sugar, melted butter, baking powder, vanilla and salt in another bowl. Beat until well mixed. Add 3/4 cup flour; mix well. Gently stir in beaten egg white mixture until just mixed. Remove 1/2 cup batter to bowl; add remaining 1/4 cup flour. Beat until well mixed. Stir in red gel food color as needed for desired tint.
STEP 5
Place red batter into pastry bag fitted with round 1/4-inch tip or plastic food bag with one corner snipped off. Pipe repeating zig-zag pattern across width of parchment-lined pan. Place pan in freezer 10 minutes or until batter is firm to touch. Working quickly, spread remaining batter evenly over piped batter.
STEP 6
Bake 10-12 minutes or until center springs back when lightly touched. Immediately loosen cake from edges of pan. Invert onto prepared towel, pattern-side down, removing parchment paper. Sprinkle top with powdered sugar. Roll up cake in towel, starting with 10-inch side. Cool completely.
STEP 7
Combine 1 tablespoon whipping cream and white chocolate in bowl. Microwave until melted; stir until smooth.
STEP 8
Place remaining whipping cream into chilled bowl; beat at medium speed until soft peaks form. Add white chocolate mixture; beat until stiff peaks form. Stir in raspberries and mint.
STEP 9
Unroll cooled cake; remove towel. Spread cake with filling, leaving 2-inch strip on one short end. Starting at opposite end, roll up cake. Transfer to serving platter. Cover; refrigerate until serving time.
STEP 10
Cut cake roll into slices to serve.
- Any pattern can be piped onto prepared pan, such as polka dots or swirls.
- To remove excess powdered sugar from cake, dip pastry brush in water and lightly brush across cake.
- Use 3 bowls when separating eggs. Crack an egg into 1 bowl, then separate yolk from white in the additional bowls. That way if the yolk breaks you will only ruin 1 egg and not ones you have already separated.
