Step-by-Step Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the Cake Batter
🔹 Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
🔹 In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
🔹 In another bowl, beat eggs, sugar, vanilla, and oil until fluffy.
🔹 Fold in shredded carrots, then gradually mix in the dry ingredients.
🔹 Spread batter evenly into the pan.
2️⃣ Bake & Roll the Cake
🔹 Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cake is set.
🔹 While hot, turn it onto a clean towel dusted with powdered sugar.
🔹 Peel off the parchment paper, then gently roll the cake with the towel inside.
🔹 Let it cool completely before adding the filling.
3️⃣ Make the Filling
🔹 Beat cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
4️⃣ Assemble & Chill
🔹 Unroll the cake carefully, spread the filling evenly, and re-roll it without the towel.
🔹 Wrap in plastic and chill for at least 1 hour.
🔹 Dust with powdered sugar, slice, and enjoy!
