Description

A delightful and easy-to-make cake roll using box cake mix, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box cake mix (any flavor)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
  • 1 cup frosting (for filling)
  • Additional powdered sugar (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan and line it with parchment paper for easy release.
  2. Mix the cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil in a large bowl until just combined and smooth.
  3. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly to ensure uniform baking.
  4. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  5. Remove the cake from the oven and sprinkle powdered sugar onto a clean kitchen towel to prevent sticking.
  6. Turn the cake onto the towel, peel back the parchment, and roll the cake up tightly from the shorter end with the towel. Let it cool completely while rolled.
  7. After cooling, gently unroll the cake and spread an even layer of frosting over the top.
  8. Roll the cake back up without the towel, positioning it seam-side down on a serving platter.
  9. Dust with additional powdered sugar before serving for a beautiful touch.

Notes

For added flavor, use flavored frosting like cream cheese or chocolate, and consider adding fresh fruit between the cake and frosting.
