1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and grease lightly.

3

Whisk eggs and granulated sugar in a bowl until thick and pale, about 5-7 minutes.

Add vanilla extract and mix until combined.

5

Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt; gently fold into the egg mixture.

6

Warm milk and melted butter together, then fold into the batter until smooth.

7

Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading evenly.

8

Bake for 12-15 minutes, until the cake springs back when touched.

9

Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes.

10

Dust a clean kitchen towel with powdered sugar and invert the cake onto it.

11

Spread fruit preserves evenly over the cake, leaving a small border.

12

Roll the cake tightly using the towel to help, then wrap in plastic wrap.

13

Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before slicing.

14

Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form and use to frost the outside of the roll.
