🎅 Christmas Roll Cake Recipe 🎄

Ingredients:

For the Cake:

🥚 4 large eggs, room temperature
🍬 1 cup granulated sugar
🍦 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
🍞 1 cup all-purpose flour
🧁 1 teaspoon baking powder
🧂 1/4 teaspoon salt
🌿 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
🌰 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
🥛 1/4 cup whole milk
🍚 Powdered sugar (for dusting)
For the Filling:

🧀 8 oz cream cheese, softened
🧴 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
🍚 1/4 cup powdered sugar
🍦 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
🍊 1 tablespoon orange zest (optional, for a citrusy twist)
🍹 1 tablespoon light rum or rum extract (optional)
For the Frosting:

🧴 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
🍚 1 cup powdered sugar
🍦 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
🌿 A pinch of cinnamon (optional)
Instructions:
Prepare the Cake 🍰:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar together until thick, pale, and fluffy, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture, alternating with the milk, until combined.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and immediately invert onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Carefully remove the parchment paper and roll the cake up in the towel while it’s still warm. Let the cake cool completely.
Make the Filling 🍊:

In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
If using, add the orange zest and rum (or rum extract) for an added holiday twist. Beat until combined.
Assemble the Cake 🎂:

Once the cake has cooled, unroll it carefully and spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the surface of the cake.
Roll the cake back up tightly (without the towel), being careful not to tear the cake.
Place the rolled cake on a serving platter, seam side down.
Make the Frosting 🍦:

In a medium bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using) until stiff peaks form.
Spread the frosting evenly over the top of the cake, covering the entire surface.
Garnish and Serve 🎄:

Optionally, dust the top with a little more powdered sugar or garnish with festive decorations like sprinkles, holly leaves, or small candy canes.
Slice and serve this delicious Christmas Roll Cake for a festive and delightful treat!

What is it that troubles your soul?In life. You may not have it all at once. Life is too unpredictable and sometimes unfulfilling to those who desire to live fulfilling lives. You will be wondering if we in America are living exotic lifestyles. And, we in America will be craving for natural food as heard that Africa is blessed with. Africa is a continent that is naturally beautiful and very rich in natural resources but lack the ability to grow or promote healthy living conditions by her leaders. And, this days is hard to held your leaders accountable as they pull against any other party that is not incumbents.I know someday.. Africa will raise. I am your friend and sister. Tonya ゚゚゚

You will always live in my heart ❤️ Sincere love ❤️ from your sister and Friend Tonya to all of you in Africa. ゚゚゚

The Courage to Choose You # Staying true to yourself often means making hard choices, even when it disappoints others. The reality is, not everyone will understand your journey-and that's okay. Choosing yourself doesn't mean being selfish; it means creating space for relationships that respect and align with who you are. It's not about pleasing everyone, it's about honoring your own truth. ゚゚゚

The Power of your words you speak to a child has the potential to shape their future. Think of your words as seeds-what are you planting in their minds? Confidence? Love? Strength?

Recalibrate your soul, adjust your stride, and show up with purpose and power. The world shifts when you decide to show up differently.

10/12/2024

Sometimes life demands a reset—a moment to pause, reflect, and adjust your course. Showing up differently doesn't mean changing who you are; it means stepping into your power with clarity and intention.
