DELICIOUSLY LIGHT AND FLUFFY SWISS ROLL

DELICIOUSLY LIGHT AND FLUFFY SWISS ROLL
Thought i’d share this Swiss roll…
It’s quick, easy and always hits the spot. Ours was finished in less than 24 hours!
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla essence
1 cup selfraising flour
½ teaspoon baking poowder
¼ cup boiling water

Pre-heat oven to 180ºC.
Whisk eggs, sugar and vanilla essence until light and fluffy and pale in colour.
Add flour, baking powder and water. Mix well.
I use spray and cook in my flat pan,
Layer the batter and bake  for 8-10 minutes – depending on your oven
Then loosen the edges, cover the top with some sugar then a layer of wax wrap, use a wooden board to secure it, then flip it over, roll and unroll before adding my layer of jam and re rolling.
Sometimes, I add a tablespoon of cocoa to make a chocolate one and add coconut to the sprinkling of sugar.
And add cream and caramel to a thin layer of strawberry jam.
Deliciously light and fluffy
Perfect everytime!

Someone asked me this morning for a swiss roll recipe so I looked on the blog….I must mention that I have never had success with making a swiss roll before. I found this recipe and tried it….came out very nice.
Going to try it next time with caramel.
