Step 1

Line a jelly roll pan (15 x10x1) w/parchment paper & spray with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Add eggs to a mixing bowl and beat on high speed until thick & lemony in color, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Gradually beat in sugar.

Step 4

Add water and vanilla on low speed.

Step 5

Measure flour, then remove 1 tablespoon and replace with 1 tablespoon of corn starch. (This will aid in preventing cake from cracking when it's rolled.)

Step 6

Sift together all dry ingredients: (flour, cornstarch, baking powder and salt.)

Step 7

Slowly add dry ingredients to the egg mixture, beating just until the batter is smooth.

Step 8

Pour batter into the prepared pan spreading out evenly to corners.

Step 9

Bake @ 375º for 12-15 minutes, until a wooden toothpick comes out clean and the cake springs.

Step 10

Watch closely! This cake can overbake in seconds!!!!

Step 11

While cake bakes, spread a large (at least 10x15,) clean, smooth, tea towel or flour sack on the counter.

Step 12

Spread a generous coat of the confectioner’s sugar to cover the cloth, this will assist releasing the thin cake from the towel when it is time to roll!

Step 13

When the cake is done, loosen from the pan and immediately invert on top of the powdered sugar covered towel.

Step 14

Remove the pan and the parchment paper and gently roll the cake lengthwise.

Step 15

Transfer cake to refrigerator and cool completely. At least 30 minutes.

Step 16

While the cake cools, make the filling by whipping the heavy cream until it forms fluffy peaks, then whip in the jam and vanilla.

Step 17

Carefully unroll the cooled cake and paint a thin layer of jam onto the cake to the edges, then add a layer of the whipped cream.

Step 18

Sprinkle the cake with fruit pieces and immediately re-roll tightly.

Step 19

Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve. This ensures the filling is set and results in beautiful slices!

Step 20

To prep for service trim the ends off of the cake to reveal a sharp edge and a beautiful swirl.

Step 21

Place on a platter, and If desired dust lightly with powdered sugar and add any other tasty embellishments of your choice.
