Delicious Rolled Cake Directions:
For the cake:
We will start by heating a frying pan over medium heat and adding the water and milk. We add a pinch of salt and another of sugar to enhance the flavor. Then, add the butter and let it melt completely.
Next, we sift the flour over the previous mixture and stir vigorously to avoid the formation of lumps. We continue heating the mixture over low heat for 2-3 minutes, until obtaining a smooth and homogeneous consistency.
We pour the dough into a bowl and refrigerate it for a few minutes, until it cools.
After that time, we add the eggs, one by one, and mix them with the dough until we obtain an elastic texture. We can use a spatula to perform this task, making sure to distribute the ingredients evenly.
Then, we preheat the oven to 200°C and pour the dough onto a previously greased mold. We spread it carefully using a spatula, ensuring that it is distributed evenly.
Bake the rolled cake for approximately 30 minutes, or until it turns golden brown and is completely cooked inside. Once ready, we remove it from the oven and let it cool.
For the cream:
In a separate container, beat the eggs together with the sugar and cornstarch until you obtain a homogeneous mixture.
In a saucepan, heat the milk along with the vanilla over medium heat until it begins to thicken. We add the egg and sugar mixture, and continue cooking until the cream acquires a thick and smooth consistency.
We remove the saucepan from the heat and add the butter. Stir until the butter melts completely and the cream is well incorporated.
We spread the cream evenly over the cooled cake and roll it carefully, forming a roll.
We put the rolled cake in the refrigerator for approximately 1 hour, so that it acquires firmness.
Finally, we decorate the cake with powdered sugar and that's it! Our delicious rolled cake is prepared to be enjoyed with the family.
Tips for your delicious rolled cake
You can add fresh fruits, such as strawberries or kiwis, to the cream before rolling the cake for a refreshing and colorful touch.
If you want a more intense flavor, you can add lemon essence or orange zest to the cake batter.
For chocolate lovers, you can add cocoa powder to the dough and fill the cake with chocolate cream before rolling it.
If you prefer a lighter option, you can use whipped cream instead of the vanilla cream.
