Baking time: 10-12 minutes
Total time: 30 minutes
Servings: 8-10

Ingredients

For the sheet:
- 4 eggs
- 4 tablespoons of sugar
- 4 tablespoons of flour
- 2 tablespoons of oil

For the cream:
- 1 packet of cream for cakes
- 250 ml cold milk
- 4 tablespoons of powdered sugar

For decoration:
- Powdered sugar
- Round biscuits

Preparation

1. Separating the eggs: Start by separating the egg whites from the yolks. This step is essential for obtaining a fluffy and light sheet. Use a clean bowl for the egg whites, as any trace of fat can prevent the foam from forming.

2. Beating the egg whites: Using a mixer, beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. It's important to use a high-speed mixer to achieve maximum volume.

3. Mixing the yolks: In another bowl, mix the yolks with the oil until they become a homogeneous mixture. Gradually add the sugar and continue mixing until the sugar is completely dissolved.

4. Combining the mixtures: Carefully place the beaten egg whites over the yolk and oil mixture. Use a spatula to fold in the egg whites, mixing from top to bottom to avoid losing air from the mixture.

5. Adding the flour: Sift the flour over the mixture and continue to gently mix until the flour is fully incorporated. It's important to avoid overmixing, as this can lead to a dense texture of the sheet.

6. Baking the sheet: Preheat the oven to 180°C (moderate heat). Spread the mixture evenly on a sheet of parchment paper, then place it in a tray and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden and elastic to the touch.

7. Rolling the sheet: After removing the sheet from the oven, transfer it onto a slightly damp kitchen towel. This step will help retain moisture and prevent the sheet from cracking. Sprinkle a little flour on the surface of the sheet and, using the towel, roll the sheet as tightly as possible. Let it cool in this form.

8. Preparing the cream: While the sheet cools, prepare the cream according to the package instructions. Mix the cream with cold milk and powdered sugar until you achieve a creamy consistency.

9. Assembling the roll: Once the sheet has completely cooled, carefully unroll it and spread the cream evenly over the surface. Roll the sheet back, taking care not to damage the cream.

10. Chilling: Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes so that the cream sets and firms up.

11. Decoration: After the roll has set, take it out of the refrigerator and slice it. Sprinkle powdered sugar on top for an elegant look. You can also add round biscuits on the side for an extra touch of refinement.

Practical tips

- Ingredients: Use fresh eggs for the best results. Farm eggs are often richer in flavor and color, but any fresh eggs will work.

- Flour: Make sure to use quality flour, ideally for cakes, which has a medium protein content. This will contribute to a fine texture.

- Cream: If you have time, you can prepare a vanilla cream from natural ingredients like milk, butter, and sugar. This will add a more authentic and richer taste to your roll.

- Variations: You can replace the cake cream with chocolate cream, mascarpone, or even fruit cream to achieve a unique combination of flavors.

Serving suggestions

The roll can be served as is, or alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. You can also add fresh fruits like strawberries or raspberries for a pleasant contrast of acidity and a note of freshness.

Nutritional benefits

This roll, rich in eggs and milk, provides a good source of protein and calcium. However, it is important to note that it is a sweet dessert, so enjoy it in moderation. The flour and sugar contribute to quick energy, but excessive consumption can lead to weight gain.
