Caramel Filled Carrot Cake Roll Recipes

CARROT CAKE ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350º Fahrenheit. Line a 10x15 inch jelly roll pan (or cookie sheet with a raised edge) with parchment paper. Allow the parchment paper to come at least 1 inch above the sides of the pan for easy lifting the finished cake from the pan. Spray the parchment paper in the pan with non-stick cooking spray.
• Sprinkle a large, clean kitchen towel very generously with powdered sugar (use at least ½ cup). Set aside for as soon as the cake is out of the oven.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
• In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the eggs, sugar and vanilla for 1 minute at high speed.
• Add the vegetable oil and mix just until combined.
• Pour the dry mixture into the wet mixture and stir gently just until combined.
• Fold in the grated carrots.
• Spread the cake batter evenly into the prepared jelly roll pan, spreading all the way to the edges. Bake for 10-12 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (do not under bake).
• As soon as the cake comes out of the oven, turn the cake out of the pan onto the sugared towel. Peel away the parchment paper carefully.
• Immediatelty fold the end of the towel over one of the short ends of the cake. Roll the cake up into the towel, starting at the short end. Set the cake aside to cool to room temperature, about 45 minutes.
• While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and powdered sugar and mix on low speed until combined and the frosting is creamy.
• Very gently, unroll the cooled cake roll and be sure it is fully released from the towel. Spread the frosting onto the cake, edge to edge. Re-roll the cake gently. Transfer the cake roll to a plate, seam side down.
• Chill the cake roll in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

• Bake in the preheated oven until top springs back when lightly touched, 10 to 12 minutes.
• While cakes are baking, dust 2 linen towels with confectioners' sugar.
• Remove cakes from the oven and cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Run a table knife around the edges to loosen. Invert each cake carefully onto the sugar-dusted towels. Peel off parchment paper and roll cakes up in the towels to cool.
• Meanwhile, combine cream cheese, butter, caramel topping, and vanilla extract for the frosting in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually mix in confectioners' sugar until fluffy.
