RED VELVET CAKE ROLL

Is there a more classic dessert for Valentine’s Day than the Red Velvet Cake Roll?  So beautiful in its simplicity and so utterly decadent at the same time.  A moist, spongy red velvet cake coated in powdered sugar and rolled up around a smooth and creamy cream cheese filling.  I can’t think of a better recipe to share with you this Valentine’s Day!

In general, I think cake rolls can seem intimidating, but they’re actually not difficult to make.  Cake rolls take a bit of a time commitment in their overall assembly, but actually making the cake and filling is pretty easy.


The Red Velvet Cake Roll batter is a very thin batter, and you will need to spread the batter out evenly so that it reaches all of the pan’s edges.  One thing I learned the first time I baked a cake for a cake roll is that my oven wasn’t quite level, and the batter kind of rolled a bit to one side when I put it in the oven.  So, one side of my cake was a bit thinner than the other.  Not too pleased with that, I can tell you!  I ended up trimming off about an inch of the thin side.  Grr.  The cake roll was still lovely, though, and no one was any the wiser!  🙂
