Swiss Roll

  • Mix step 1 into step 2 a little at time, using spatula. Do this gently so batter wont deflate much.
  • Take out a couple tbsp of batter and add food coloring (depending what you want to make, this one I made strawberry, so food colors are accordingly). Pour into piping bag, and pipe of baking sheet which already lined with parchment paper. Bake on preheated 325 F for 1-2 mins.
  • Pour the rest of the batter covering strawberry patterns and bake for 15-18 mins
  • Take out, flip on another parchment paper, and gently peel the patterned parchment paper.
  • Roll gently immediately and leave to cool. Unroll, fill with your faved. filling and reroll.
  • Pictured was with whipped cream - best once filled, chill for a couple of hours before slicing.

Notes

(my baking sheet was 1 inch x 10 inch)
some people like to leave the sponge cool as is, then fill, then roll. I often crack mine doing so. So I prefer, out, peel, roll, cool, unroll, fill, reroll
