# Steps:
01 -
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and get a 9x13-inch baking sheet ready by lining it with parchment. Whisk the sugar and eggs vigorously until thick and light. Stir in vanilla. Gently fold in the sifted salt, flour, and baking powder. Carefully add the strawberries and milk, mix, pour, and bake for 10–12 minutes.
02 -
While still warm, roll the parchment-lined cake into a log and let it cool down fully.
03 -
Whip the cream cheese, vanilla, and powdered sugar until it’s glossy and creamy. Whip the heavy cream in a separate bowl until it can hold its shape. Combine both gently by folding.
04 -
Carefully open the cooled roll, spread the cheesecake filling evenly, and gently roll it back up. Wrap tightly in plastic and let it set in the fridge for at least a couple of hours.
05 -
Combine the crushed Oreos, the strawberry gelatin, and the warm melted butter. Stir until chunky.
06 -
Spread an extra layer of cheesecake filling all over the roll. Sprinkle the crumble generously on top. Pop on some whipped cream, strawberry slices, and a drizzle of strawberry sauce. Slice it up and dig in!
