Honey Cake Roll just like "Medovik" only way easier! This fluffy sponge cake is incredibly simple to make, filled with a sour cream frosting, its sure to be a crowd-pleaser dessert and perfect for busy moms.
In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the eggs and sugar over high speed for 20 minutes. Meanwhile preheat the oven to 350°F and line two jelly roll pans with foil, lightly grease, and set aside.
To the sponge cake batter, mix in the honey and baking soda. Turn off the mixer and using the wire whisk attachment gently stir in the flour going in one direction.
Evenly divide the batter into the prepared pans using an angled spatula and bake for 20-25 minutes or until done.
Remove the honey sponge cakes from the oven and gently roll up. Cool completely.
Make the Sour cream Frosting: whisk together the sour cream and powdered sugar then set aside. In another bowl, beat the heavy cream to soft peaks and mix it into the sour cream mixture.
Gently unroll each cake roll and peel off the foil. Frost with 1/4 of the cream, roll up, and place onto a rectangular cake plate.
Finish frosting the sides and top with 1/4 of the cream, and garnish with graham cracker crumbs if desired. Repeat process with the other cake roll. Serve immediately or keep in the refrigerator until needed.
Notes
Notes:
Graham crackers are optional, but they look more like "Medovik Rolls" with this garnish, use honey flavored ones.
This cake is very moist and ready to serve immediately however, I like the cream to soften the cake roll even more so allow it to sit in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
You can use lightly greased parchment paper instead of foil.
