Instructions

Prepare Your Workspace: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan. Line it with parchment paper.
Make the Sponge Cake:
- Mix dry ingredients: Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Prepare wet ingredients: Beat eggs and sugar until thick and pale, about 5 minutes.
- Combine: Add vanilla extract and milk to the wet mixture, and fold in the dry ingredients gently.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 12–15 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
Roll the Cake: Dust a kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Invert the cake onto the towel and peel off the parchment. Roll the cake with the towel while it’s still warm and allow it to cool completely.
Make the Cheesecake Filling: Beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Gently fold in whipped cream.
Assemble the Dessert Roll: Unroll the cooled cake, remove the towel, and spread cheesecake filling evenly. Add sliced strawberries on top. Carefully roll the cake back up and refrigerate for 1 hour to set.

Notes

Keep the cake moist by not overbaking. Roll it while it’s warm to prevent cracking.
Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor.
Chill before slicing to keep the roll intact.
