Method
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 15x10-inch jelly roll pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving overhang.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- Beat Eggs and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and 1 cup sugar on high speed for about 5 minutes until the mixture is thick and pale. Mix in the 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Finish Cake Batter: Gradually add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, alternating with the milk and melted butter. Mix until just combined.
- Bake: Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
- Prep for Rolling: While the cake is baking, dust a clean kitchen towel heavily with powdered sugar.
- Roll Cake (1): Immediately invert the hot cake onto the towel. Carefully peel off the parchment paper. Roll the cake up tightly in the towel, starting from the short end.
- Cool: Allow the cake to cool completely in the towel on a wire rack.
- Make Filling: In a medium bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, 2 tablespoons powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Finish Filling: Gently fold in the raspberries and white chocolate chips.
- Assemble: Once the cake is cool, unroll it gently. Spread the raspberry white chocolate filling evenly over the surface.
- Roll Cake (2): Roll the cake back up without the towel, and place it seam-side down on a serving platter.
- Chill and Serve: Chill the cake roll in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before slicing. Dust generously with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
Rolling is Key: Rolling the cake while it's hot trains the cake to hold the coiled shape, preventing cracks when you fill it later.
Chocolate Twist: Substitute half of the white chocolate chips with semi-sweet chocolate chips for a chocolate twist.
Berry Swap: You can use other berries like strawberries or blueberries for a different flavor profile.
Cooling Time: Ensure the cake is completely cool before filling; otherwise, the whipped cream filling will melt.
