How to cook deliciously - Grandma's Spiced Gingerbread Roll

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray, set a piece of waxed paper on top, and spray wax paper.

2. Stage

Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl with an electric mixer until foamy. Gradually add sugar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.

3. Stage

Beat egg yolks at high speed in a second bowl until thick and creamy, about 5 minutes. Stir in molasses and melted butter. Fold in egg whites.

4. Stage

Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and salt in a bowl. Sift onto the batter and carefully fold in. Spread batter onto the prepared baking sheet.

5. Stage

Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the sheet comes out clean, 8 to 10 minutes.

6. Stage

Dust a kitchen towel with powdered sugar. Invert cake onto the towel. Pull off waxed paper and carefully roll up cake up using the towel. Allow to cool seam side down, about 30 minutes.

7. Stage

Meanwhile, make the spiced cream. Combine heavy cream, powdered sugar, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and cloves in a bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until cream has the consistency of frosting.

Carefully unroll the cake and spread 1/2 of the spiced cream on top. Roll cake roll back up, without the towel, and spread remaining cream around the top and sides of the cake roll.
