Preparation time: 20 minutes
Baking time: 25-30 minutes
Total time: 50-60 minutes
Number of servings: 8-10
Necessary ingredients
For the dough:
- 5 eggs
- 5 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 5 tablespoons oil
- 5 tablespoons flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- Grated zest of one lemon
- 1 packet of vanilla sugar
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 1 tablespoon cocoa (optional, for variation)
For the filling:
- 300 g cottage cheese
- 200 g blackberries (or blackberry syrup, depending on preferences)
- 4 tablespoons powdered sugar (or to taste)
- 3 tablespoons sour cream
Step-by-step instructions
1. Preparing the ingredients: Start by gathering all the ingredients. Make sure the cottage cheese is well drained and the blackberries are fresh and clean. If using blackberry syrup, prepare it to integrate into the filling.
2. Beat the eggs: In a large bowl, separate the yolks from the whites. Beat the yolks with powdered sugar, vanilla sugar, and grated lemon zest until the mixture becomes creamy and light in color.
3. Add the wet ingredients: To the yolk mixture, add the oil and sour cream. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.
4. Incorporate the dry ingredients: Sift the flour and baking powder over the wet mixture, gently folding with a spatula or wooden spoon to avoid lumps.
5. Beat the egg whites: In another bowl, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. This step is essential for achieving a fluffy roll. Carefully fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture using a gentle folding motion.
6. Divide the mixture: Divide the mixture into two bowls. In one, add the sifted cocoa and gently mix until combined.
7. Shape the roll: Prepare a 38x43 cm baking tray lined with parchment paper. Pour the two colored mixtures alternately into the tray, creating a marbled pattern. Use a fork to gently swirl if you want a more artistic effect.
8. Baking: Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (350 degrees Fahrenheit) and bake the roll for 25-30 minutes. Check if it's done with a toothpick test – if it comes out clean, the roll is perfectly baked.
9. Cooling and flipping: Once the roll is done, remove it from the oven and flip it onto a damp towel. Carefully remove the parchment paper and roll the cake with the towel, allowing it to cool completely.
10. Preparing the filling: While the roll cools, prepare the filling. In a bowl, mix the cottage cheese with powdered sugar, sour cream, and blended blackberries. You can adjust the sugar amount depending on how sweet your blackberries are.
11. Filling the roll: After the roll has cooled completely, carefully unroll it and spread the blackberry and cheese filling evenly. Roll it up again with the help of the towel, gently securing the ends.
12. Final cooling: Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This step will help stabilize the shape and make slicing easier.
13. Serving: Slice the roll and dust it with powdered sugar for an elegant look. You can serve it plain or alongside a fruit sauce, vanilla ice cream, or a cup of fragrant tea.
Useful tips
- Fruit variations: You can experiment with other fruits such as raspberries, strawberries, or even peaches, depending on the season and preferences.
- Additional flavors: Add a little vanilla or almond extract to the filling for an even more refined taste.
- Different types of cheese: Instead of cottage cheese, you can use ricotta for a creamier texture or mascarpone for a richer flavor.
