Provided by Vallery Lomas

Time 2h25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 large eggs
0.5 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Dash salt
0.667 cup all-purpose flour
Red food coloring
2 tablespoon Powdered sugar, plus more for dusting
1 6 ounce package fresh raspberries
0.5 cup sliced fresh or frozen rhubarb
3 ounce cream cheese, cut up and softened
0.667 cup whipping cream
0.5 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Coat a 15x10-inch baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line pan with parchment paper. Coat paper with cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl beat eggs, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and a dash salt with a mixer on medium for 2 minutes. Increase speed to medium-high; beat 8 to 10 minutes or until thick and light in color.
  • Sift flour over egg mixture; fold in until no streaks of flour remain. Place 1/3 cup batter in a small bowl. Add enough food coloring to tint pink. Place pink batter in a small resealable plastic bag. Snip off one corner. Pipe small circles of batter in a random pattern over bottom of the prepared pan. Bake 2 minutes. Spread remaining batter over circles. Bake 7 to 8 minutes more or until cake is golden and springs back when lightly touched.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Invert cake onto prepared sheet. Carefully remove parchment from cake. Dust a kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Use parchment to flip cake, pattern side down, onto towel. Roll up cake and towel, starting from a short side. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  • For filling: In a medium saucepan combine raspberries, rhubarb, and remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar. Bring to boiling, stirring to break up berries; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, about 10 minutes or until fruit is softened. Remove from heat; let cool slightly. Place in a blender or food processor. Cover; blend until smooth. Press mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds. Let fruit puree cool completely.
  • In a medium bowl beat cream cheese with a mixer on medium until smooth. Slowly beat in cream until smooth. Add 2 tablespoons powdered sugar and the vanilla; beat until soft peaks form.
  • Unroll cake. Spread with half the fruit puree. Spread cream mixture evenly over puree. Drizzle with remaining fruit puree. Using a knife, swirl mixtures together. Carefully reroll cake, using towel to help tightly roll. Place seam side down on a platter. Cover; chill at least 2 hours. Before serving, dust with powdered sugar. Serves 10.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Bread Recipes

Time 2h

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound rhubarb, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 3 cups)
6 ounces fresh raspberries
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3/4 cup buttermilk, plus more for brushing
Coarse sanding sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, toss rhubarb and berries with 1/3 cup granulated sugar and vanilla. Spread mixture in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet; bake, stirring twice, until juices have thickened but have not burned, 45 to 50 minutes. Immediately transfer to a bowl; let cool completely. (You should have 1 cup. Rhubarb mixture can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 5 days.)
  • Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees. Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, remaining 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, and salt. Toss butter in flour mixture to evenly coat, then press between your fingers until mixture has the texture of coarse meal, with a few pea-size pieces remaining. Add buttermilk; stir in with a fork until dough begins to form but mixture is still crumbly. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface; knead just to combine (do not overwork). With a floured rolling pin, roll out to an 8-by-10-inch rectangle, 1/2 inch thick.
  • Spread rhubarb mixture over dough to edges, then fold tightly into thirds like a letter, sealed-side up. Using a large spatula, transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush top with buttermilk; sprinkle generously with sanding sugar. Bake until puffed and golden brown, about 40 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack using parchment; let cool about 30 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • To make sure your jelly roll cake doesn't crack, make sure to roll it up while it's still warm. If you wait until it's completely cooled, it will be more likely to break.
  • If you don't have a jelly roll pan, you can use a regular baking sheet. Just trim the edges of the cake so that it fits.
  • To make sure your jelly roll cake is evenly cooked, rotate the pan halfway through baking.
  • Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
  • If you want a more intense rhubarb flavor, you can use fresh rhubarb instead of frozen rhubarb.
  • This cake can be stored at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can also freeze the cake for up to 2 months.

Conclusion:

Rhubarb jelly roll cake is a classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its sweet and tart flavor, this cake is sure to be a hit.
