Ingredients

  • 810 slices pound cake or sponge cake
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup whipped topping or whipped cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  • Optional: crushed golden cookies or shortbread crumbs
  • Optional: powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. Gently flatten the cake slices with a rolling pin until thin and flexible.
  2. In a bowl, mix cream cheese, whipped topping, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  3. Spread the cream mixture evenly over the flattened cake slices.
  4. Arrange sliced strawberries in a line across one edge of the cake.
  5. Carefully roll the cake tightly, sushi-style, starting from the strawberry edge.
  6. Wrap the roll in plastic wrap and chill for 20–30 minutes to firm up.
  7. Unwrap and slice the roll into 12–16 bite-sized pieces.
  8. Optional: dust with powdered sugar or sprinkle with cookie crumbs before serving.

Notes
