Harvest Cake Roll
HALLOWEEN. What a celebration it is in America. I have always enjoyed celebrating it with handmade costumes, artsy markup and decadent food.
This will be my first Halloween in Utah! How exciting!
I cannot believe this is actually my very first cake roll recipe over here, I make them all the time on the weekend. Of course a simpler version 🙂
And k’mon, it is filled with Coconut Cream Cheese, who could resist?
Wishing you all a Spooky Halloween, Bon Appétit!
