Time 3h50m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 13

nonstick cooking spray
¾ cup cake flour (not self-rising)
1 cup superfine sugar, divided
¼ teaspoon salt
9 large egg whites
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
¾ teaspoon cream of tartar
2 tablespoons superfine sugar
¼ cup confectioners' sugar, or as needed
1 cup white sugar
2 ⅓ cups fresh cranberries
6 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Lightly coat a 10x15-inch baking pan with nonstick spray. Line the bottom of the pan with waxed paper, then spray the paper.
  • Sift cake flour, 1/2 cup superfine sugar, and salt into a bowl. Sift the mixture two more times.
  • Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until foamy. Gradually add vanilla and cream of tartar, continuing to beat until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in remaining 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons superfine sugar. Gradually sift flour mixture over egg white mixture, folding it in until just combined. Spread batter evenly in the prepared pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until top of cake is lightly browned and springs back when lightly pressed, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove cake and set on a wire rack. Loosen sides with a spatula, then generously sift confectioners' sugar over top. Cover cake with a clean kitchen towel and invert onto a second wire rack. Remove the pan and peel off the waxed paper. Starting at the short end, roll up the cake and towel together. Place, seam-side down, on a rack and let cool completely, about 1 hour.
  • Simmer cranberries, sugar, and water in a pan over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Strain well and return to the pan.
  • Whisk in cornstarch; simmer until thick, about 2 minutes. Cover and chill until cake has fully cooled.
  • Very gently unroll the cooled cake. Carefully spread cranberry filling over top, leaving a 1/2 border with no filling. Gently re-roll the cake and place, seam-side down, on a serving platter. Refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
