Before you know it, this delightful treat will become your go-to for birthdays, brunches, or just because you deserve a dessert that says, "Yes, I am fabulous!"

Ingredients

Let’s jump into the fun part! Here’s what you’ll need:

For the Cake Roll:

• 1 cup of all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

For the Ice Cream Layer:

• 1 pint of your favorite vanilla ice cream (don’t hesitate to try chocolate chip!)
• ½ cup mini chocolate chip cookie dough bites

For the Topping:

• Whipped cream (store-bought or homemade)
• Chocolate syrup (because who doesn’t love an extra drizzle?)
• Mini chocolate chips for garnish

Directions

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Before you throw on your apron and dance to your favorite tune, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 15×10 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper and give it a light spray with cooking spray. This cake is delicate, and we want it to glide right off.

Step 2: Mix the Cake Batter

In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until it’s nice and fluffy—about 5 minutes. Add in the vanilla and vegetable oil. Gradually fold in your dry ingredients until just combined. Remember, no one likes a tough cake, so be gentle!

Step 3: Bake the Cake

Pour the batter into your prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake for 12–15 minutes or until the cake springs back when lightly touched. While baking, let’s get a little nostalgia going—this cake roll will remind you of those childhood dreams of dessert!

Step 4: Roll It Up

Once baked, remove the cake from the oven, and immediately turn it onto a dish towel dusted with powdered sugar. Peel off the parchment paper and gently roll the cake up in the towel, starting from the short end. This will help it retain its lovely shape. Place it seam side down and let it cool completely. You’ve got this!

Step 5: Assemble Your Dessert

Now for the ice cream magic! Oh yeah! When the cake is cool, carefully unroll it, spread a layer of ice cream over the surface, sprinkle with cookie dough bites, and then roll it back up! Wrap it in plastic wrap and freeze for about 4 hours or until firm. This is the moment you can sneak a taste of the leftover ice cream—no one has to know!

Step 6: Serve and Enjoy

Before serving, slice the roll, arrange on plates, and top with whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate syrup, and a sprinkle of mini chocolate chips. Voila! You now have a dessert that will wow everyone and likely elicit some happy dance moves!

Cooking Tips

• If your cake cracks a bit while rolling, do not panic! A little whipped cream will cover a multitude of sins in dessert world.
• Experiment with different ice cream flavors! Mint chocolate chip or strawberry could be delightful surprises.
• Want to save some time? Store-bought cookie dough is a quick and easy alternative!
