Glaze

  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 9-11 tsp milk

Instructions

Carrot

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F and use baking paper to line a 15x10 jelly roll pan, leaving a little excess on each side.
  2. Whisk to combine the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, salt, nutmeg, and cloves in a large bowl.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the sugar and eggs, then add the vegetable oil, vanilla, and shredded carrot. Mix until well combined.
  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the carrot mixture until blended. Pour the cake batter into the prepared jelly pan and spread it evenly.
  5. Bake this for 12-13 minutes, then remove it from the oven. Use the excess baking paper like handles to lift the cake from the pan.
  6. Place the cake on a flat surface and gently roll lengthwise, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Filling

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk the powdered sugar, butter, cream cheese, and vanilla until smooth and lump-free.

Assemble Cake Roll

  1. Gently unroll the cake and spread an even layer of the filling onto the cake. Leave small gaps at each end to the filling from oozing out.
  2. Reroll the cake and secure it tightly with plastic wrap, chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before slicing.
  3. Once the cake has been chilled, make the glaze. Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and beat until smooth and creamy. Drizzle on top of the cake, slice, and serve.

    Love carrot cake and love pumpkin rolls, this sounds like a perfect recipe for me. Question: I know cream cheese doesn’t freeze well but with the added ingredients can the left-over roll be frozen for a later date?

    1. Chef Austin says:

      Yes, Gloria. The Leftover can be frozen for up to three weeks.
