Looking for a dairy dessert that’s a bit different? Look no further, we have a great recipe for you! Although this cake roll may look fancy, it’s actually super easy to create. The vanilla cake is moist and fluffy, and the cream cheese filling is sweet and creamy. Refrigerate this cake first for even, neat slices.
4 eggs, separated
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup orange juice
3/4 cup Glicks Flour
1 teaspoon Haddar Baking Powder
10 ounces apricot or strawberry jam, such as Tuscanini
1/4 cup water
1 pound cream cheese
3 tablespoons liquor
1 (8-ounce) sour cream
3 tablespoons Gefen Confectioners’ Sugar
Beat egg whites until soft.
Add sugar and beat until peaks form. Fold in egg yolks and orange juice.
Reduce speed and add flour and baking powder.
Pour into cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 minutes.
Dust dish towel with confectioners’ sugar. Invert hot cake onto powdered towel. Roll up, jelly roll style. Cool and unroll.
In small saucepan, dissolve jam with water. Combine with cream cheese and liquor.
Spread evenly over cake and reroll.
Mix sour cream with confectioners’ sugar, spread over top and sides of roll.
Refrigerate before slicing.

agreed, filling is pretty liquidy. I kept out the liquor and I added some corn/pot starch to thicken. Put in fridge solidified it more. Cake was thinner than expected, but didn’t break.
the cake cracked upon rolling. it was rolled while hot.
the filling is way too runny and this was without adding the liquor.
the filling is running out of the cake from every crack.
