  • In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.
  • Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
  • Spread the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for about 12–14 minutes until golden.
  • While the cake is warm, sprinkle powdered sugar on top and carefully roll it up with a clean kitchen towel.

Making the Filling

  • Beat together the cream cheese, unsalted butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Slowly add the powdered sugar and beat until fluffy.

Assembly

  • Unroll the cooled cake and spread the cream cheese filling evenly, then roll it back up tightly.
  • Cover the outside with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings if desired.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours before slicing.

Notes

Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for best results. Fresh spices elevate the flavor.
