# Ingredient List:
→ Cake
01 - 1 large store-bought plain sheet cake (approx. 9x13 inches, vanilla or chocolate)
→ Filling
02 - 1 cup cold heavy cream
03 - 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
04 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
→ Decorations
05 - 1 1/2 cups ready-to-spread vanilla or chocolate frosting
06 - Assorted colored gel food coloring
07 - Assorted holiday sprinkles, mini candies, and edible decorations
08 - 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
# Recipe Steps:
01 - In a chilled bowl, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
02 - Remove cake from packaging and trim edges to form neat rectangle if needed. Place cake on parchment paper and level top by slicing off any domed areas. Roll cake gently with parchment from short side, then unroll to create a memory for easier rolling.
03 - Spread whipped cream filling evenly over cake surface leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle mini chocolate chips if desired. Roll cake tightly from short end using parchment to guide. Wrap in parchment and refrigerate at least 30 minutes for cleaner slices if preferred.
04 - Divide frosting into bowls and tint each with different gel food colorings. Spread base layer of frosting over roll. Use piping bags or zip-top bags with snipped corners to pipe zigzags, dots, lines, and whimsical shapes. Add sprinkles, candies, and edible decorations for a festive appearance.
05 - Cut roll into 1-inch slices and serve.
