Oreo Cream Cheese Cheesecake Sushi Roll Dessert

Instructions

1. Bake the Cake:

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10×15-inch jelly roll pan and line it with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang on the sides for easy removal.

  • In a large bowl, prepare the cake batter according to the package directions, using the eggs, oil, water, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.

  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan, spreading it into an even layer with a spatula.

  • Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the top of the cake springs back when lightly touched and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

2. Roll the Cake to Cool:

  • While the cake is baking, lay a clean, lint-free kitchen towel on a flat surface. Generously dust the towel with powdered sugar.

  • As soon as the cake is out of the oven, carefully invert it onto the powdered-sugar-dusted towel. Gently peel away the parchment paper.

  • Starting from one of the short ends, use the towel to carefully but snugly roll the warm cake into a log. This initial roll, done while warm, trains the cake to hold its shape and prevents cracking later.

  • Allow the rolled cake to cool completely on a wire rack, seam-side down.

3. Prepare the Filling:

  • In a medium mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy.

  • Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue beating until the mixture is fully combined and fluffy.

  • Using a spatula, gently fold in the 1/2 cup of crushed Oreos until they are evenly distributed.

4. Assemble the Roll:

  • Once the cake is completely cool, carefully unroll it. It will lie flat.

  • Spread the Oreo cream cheese filling evenly over the entire surface of the cake, leaving a small ½-inch border around the edges.

  • Gently but firmly, re-roll the cake (without the towel this time) into a tight log.

  • Wrap the finished roll snugly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow it to set and firm up.

5. Garnish and Serve:

  • Just before serving, place the chilled cake roll on a serving platter. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the top.

  • Decorate with whole Oreo cookies and a sprinkle of the extra crushed Oreos.

  • For clean slices, use a sharp knife that has been warmed under hot water and wiped dry. Slice the roll into 1-inch portions and serve immediately.

Serving & Storage Tips

  • For Neat Slices: Always use a hot, clean knife. Run the blade under very hot water, wipe it dry, and then make your cut. Repeat this process for each slice for a pristine presentation.

  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

  • Make-Ahead Tip: You can prepare the entire roll (without the white chocolate and final Oreo garnish) a day in advance. Keep it wrapped in plastic wrap in the fridge, then add the toppings right before serving.
