Passover Carrot Cake Roll Food

CARROT CAKE ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350º Fahrenheit. Line a 10x15 inch jelly roll pan (or cookie sheet with a raised edge) with parchment paper. Allow the parchment paper to come at least 1 inch above the sides of the pan for easy lifting the finished cake from the pan. Spray the parchment paper in the pan with non-stick cooking spray.
• Sprinkle a large, clean kitchen towel very generously with powdered sugar (use at least ½ cup). Set aside for as soon as the cake is out of the oven.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
• In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the eggs, sugar and vanilla for 1 minute at high speed.
• Add the vegetable oil and mix just until combined.
• Pour the dry mixture into the wet mixture and stir gently just until combined.
• Fold in the grated carrots.
• Spread the cake batter evenly into the prepared jelly roll pan, spreading all the way to the edges. Bake for 10-12 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean (do not under bake).
• As soon as the cake comes out of the oven, turn the cake out of the pan onto the sugared towel. Peel away the parchment paper carefully.
• Immediatelty fold the end of the towel over one of the short ends of the cake. Roll the cake up into the towel, starting at the short end. Set the cake aside to cool to room temperature, about 45 minutes.
• While the cake is cooling, prepare the frosting. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and powdered sugar and mix on low speed until combined and the frosting is creamy.
• Very gently, unroll the cooled cake roll and be sure it is fully released from the towel. Spread the frosting onto the cake, edge to edge. Re-roll the cake gently. Transfer the cake roll to a plate, seam side down.
• Chill the cake roll in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

PASSOVER CARROT CAKE ROLL

Steps:

• Position the oven rack on the bottom third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Butter a 10-1/2x15-1/2-inch jelly roll pan with 2 teaspoons of the butter. Line the pan with parchment paper, overhanging the short ends by about 3 inches. Using the remaining 2 teaspoons, butter the part of the paper that fits inside the pan. Set the pan aside.
• Sift the matzo cake meal and potato starch together into a bowl. Add the ground almonds, cinnamon and nutmeg and whisk the ingredients to combine them completely. Set aside. Beat the egg yolks and brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer set at medium speed for 2-3 minutes or until thick and well combined. Stir in the carrots and matzo cake meal mixture and mix until thoroughly blended.
• In another bowl, beat the egg whites with a whisk (or use an electric mixer with a whisk attachment set at medium speed) for about 2 minutes or until the whites stand in soft peaks. Still whisking, gradually add granulated sugar, raise the speed to high and whisk the ingredients for 1-2 minutes or until the whites stand in stiff, glossy peaks. Fold the beaten whites into the carrot batter, folding until the batter is evenly colored. Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and use a spatula to even out the batter. Bake for 16-18 minutes, rotating the pan once halfway through, or until the cake is set, lightly brown and coming away from the sides of the pan. Loosen the cake from the sides of the pan using the overhanging parchment paper. While the cake is still hot, place a clean kitchen towel sprinkled with 2 tbsp. confectioners' sugar on top. Place a large rack or board on top of the towel. Invert the cake, remove the pan and parchment paper. Roll the cake and the towel up together. Let cool for 30 minutes.
• For filling, beat the cream cheese and 6 Tbsp. butter in the bowl of an electric mixer set at medium speed for 2-3 minutes or until well combined. Gradually beat in 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar. Stir in the lemon juice and peel. Add the milk and beat the ingredients until the filling is smooth and spreadable.
• Unroll the cake and spread the filling on top to within 1-1/2-inches of the far short side and 1/2-inch of the other three sides. Roll the cake, not using the towel. Trim the side edges with a serrated knife. Place the cake onto a serving platter. Dust with remaining Passover confectioners' sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

CARROT CAKE JELLY ROLL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. For the cake: Grease a 13-by-18-inch sheet pan with butter, line bottom of the pan with parchment paper and generously butter and flour the paper.
• In a small bowl, sift together the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, ginger, nutmeg, and salt and stir to combine. Place the eggs and granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed until light, thick and pale, about 5 minutes. With the mixer on low, add the carrot, then slowly add the flour mixture, mixing just until incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Bake until the top springs back when gently touched, about 15 minutes.
• While the cake is baking, lay a clean, thin cotton dish towel out on a flat surface and sift 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar evenly over it. (This will prevent the cake from sticking to the towel.) As soon as you remove the cake from the oven, loosen it around the edges and invert it squarely onto the prepared towel. Peel away the parchment paper. Starting at one of the short ends, gently roll the warm cake and the towel together. Allow the rolled cake to cool completely on a wire rack.
• For the candied carrots: Combine the grated carrot, sugar and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring often, and cook until the carrots are bright orange, glossy and almost dry, about 12 minutes. Remove to a plate with a slotted spoon and let cool. (The candied carrots will be in clumps.)
• For the frosting: Beat the cream cheese, butter and salt together with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined and smooth, about 3 minutes. Reduce the speed to low and add the confectioners¿ sugar, vanilla and 1 teaspoon milk. Continue to beat until completely combined, about 2 minutes. (If needed add the second teaspoon of milk, the mixture should be fluffy not runny.) Increase the speed to high and beat until fluffy, about 4 minutes more.
• To assemble: Place 1/2 cup of the frosting in a small bowl and set aside. Carefully unroll the cake onto a cutting board with the towel underneath. Using a small offset spatula, spread half the frosting evenly over the cake. Sprinkle the frosting evenly with walnuts, raisins and golden raisins, making sure to go all the way to the edges. Disperse teaspoons of candied carrots across the frosting. Carefully reroll the cake, using the towel as a guide. Place the cake roll on a platter. Frost the sides and ends of the cake with the remaining frosting and press shredded coconut all over the surface.
• Combine the reserved 1/2 cup frosting with 2 to 4 drops orange food coloring and mix well. Transfer the tinted frosting to a pastry bag fitted with a small plain tip. Pipe 12 carrots evenly down the center of the cake roll and top each with a small piece of reserved carrot frond. Place the cake in the refrigerator until fully chilled, about 2 hours.
