Step-By-Step Instructions for Red Velvet Cake Roll
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grab a 10x15-inch cake pan. Line the bottom with foil and lightly spray it with nonstick cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the large eggs for about 3-5 minutes until they become foamy and pale in color. Gradually add the granulated sugar and continue mixing for another 2 minutes.
- Blend in the vegetable oil, baking powder, salt, vanilla extract, and cocoa powder into the egg mixture. Stir until everything is evenly combined.
- Gradually add the all-purpose flour into the wet ingredients, mixing gently until just combined.
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the cake springs back when touched.
- Prepare a clean kitchen towel by dusting it generously with powdered sugar.
- Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and immediately flip it onto the prepared towel. Roll it up from the short end and set aside to cool completely.
- In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and butter until smooth, then gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
- Once the cake is completely cooled, unroll it and spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the surface.
- Roll it back up tightly without the towel and wrap in plastic wrap, then refrigerate for at least one hour.
- Dust the top with additional powdered sugar before serving.

Notes
Consider swapping in flavors like lemon zest or almond extract for a unique twist on the classic cream cheese filling.
