There is a recipe I had a long time ago for gingerbread roll with cinnamon buttercrem frosting. I lost the recipe and cant find it anywhere on the internet not even on the southern living web site. I know it is in the southern living 30 years best recipes cookbook, so I guess if it comes down to it I will go and find the book. I was hoping that maybe someone here may be able to help though. Anyone have that book or the recipe?? I would be really grateful....Thanks
thanks but I should have explained myself better. It is like a pumpkin roll but gingerbread flavor....it isnt actualy a gingerbread house type desert. It is like cake. But thanks anyway.
Oops I forgot to include my recipe for gingerbread roll with cinnamon icing...although I didn't get it from Southern Living. Is this similar to the one you are looking for??
The whipped cinnamon icing is great but it's not buttercreme...it's made with whipping cream.
Cake
3 large eggs, separated
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1/2 cup molasses
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Line a greased 15 x 10 inch jellyroll pan with waxed paper; grease and flour wax paper. Set pan aside.
Beat egg yolks at high speed with an electric mixer until thick and pale. Gradually add butter and molasses, beating until blended. Beat egg whites at high speed until foamy. Gradually add sugar, 1 tbls. at a time, beating until stiff peaks form and sugar dissolves (2-4 minutes). Fold egg whites into yolk mixture. Combine flour and next 6 ingredients; gradually fold flour mixture into egg mixture. Spread batterevenly into prepared pan. Bake at 350F for 8-10 minutes or just until cake springs back when touched lightly.
Sift powdered sugar in a 15 x 10 inch rectangle on a cloth towel. When cake is done, immediately loosen from sides of pan, and turn out onto sugared towel. Peel off wax paper. Starting at narrow end, roll up cake and towel together; cool completly on a wire rack, seam side down. Unroll cake; spread with half of Spiced Cream Frosting' carefully re-roll. Place on a serving plate, seam side down. Spread remaining Spiced Cream Frosting on all sides. Pull a fork or an icing comb down length of frosting. Cover loosely, and chill until ready to serve.
whip all of the icing ingredients until soft peaks form.
