Ingredients
Scale
1 box vanilla cake mix (plus ingredients to prepare it)
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 cups fresh strawberries, chopped
1/2 cup strawberry jam or glaze
1 cup crushed shortbread or graham cracker crumbs
Optional: More sliced strawberries for topping
Instructions
Bake the Cake Roll Base: Prepare and bake the vanilla cake in a 10×15″ jelly roll pan lined with parchment. While still warm, gently roll the cake in a kitchen towel. Let cool.
Whip Up the Cheesecake Filling: Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then fold into the cream cheese mix.
Fill and Roll it Up: Unroll the cake, spread a generous layer of cheesecake filling, then sprinkle chopped strawberries. Roll it back up tightly.
Top with Glaze & Berries: Drizzle strawberry jam over the top, add more fresh strawberries, and sprinkle crushed shortbread crumbs.
Chill & Serve: Chill the roll for at least 2 hours before slicing.
Notes
Chill the roll for at least 2 hours for best results.
