Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp cotton candy flavoring
  • 1/4 cup pink cotton candy, for garnish
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 10×15 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs and granulated sugar with an electric mixer until thick and pale, about 5 minutes. Stir in vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until just combined.
  4. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared pan and spread to the edges.
  5. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
  6. While cake bakes, whisk the heavy cream with powdered sugar and cotton candy flavoring until stiff peaks form.
  7. Remove cake from oven and immediately invert onto a clean kitchen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Peel off parchment paper.
  8. Roll the cake gently with the towel from a short side and let cool completely.
  9. Unroll the cake and spread the cotton candy cream evenly over the surface.
  10. Carefully re-roll the cake without the towel and place seam side down on a serving plate.
  11. Garnish the top with pink cotton candy and dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

For an extra pop of color, add a few drops of pink food coloring to the whipped cream before flavoring it with cotton candy extract.
