Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 120 grams All-purpose flour
- 100 grams Granulated sugar
- 4 Large eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Whole milk
- 300 grams Dulce de leche
- 200 milliliters Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Caramel sauce (for drizzling)
- 1 tablespoon Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 10x15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper. Lightly grease the parchment paper to ensure easy release later.
In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar on high speed using a hand or stand mixer until the mixture is pale, thick, and triples in volume (about 4-5 minutes).
Add the vanilla extract and mix just until combined.
Gently fold in the dry ingredients in three additions using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the batter. Add the milk in the last fold to help loosen the batter.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the top is lightly golden and springs back when touched.
While the cake is baking, lay a clean kitchen towel on a flat surface and dust it generously with powdered sugar.
Immediately after removing the cake from the oven, turn it out onto the prepared kitchen towel and peel off the parchment paper. Starting from one short end, gently roll the cake with the towel into a log while it’s still warm. Let it cool completely in this rolled shape.
Once cooled, unroll the cake gently and spread the dulce de leche evenly over the surface.
Re-roll the cake (without the towel this time), making sure to roll it tightly but carefully to avoid cracking.
In a bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the top of the rolled cake.
Drizzle caramel sauce over the whipped cream and garnish with an optional dusting of powdered sugar for a polished finish.
Slice and serve chilled or at room temperature. Enjoy your Dulce Argentino!
