Instructions
For the Cake:
- Preheat oven to 325° F

- Right away, on one of the long sides of the pan, begin rolling the cake, including the bottom and top pieces of parchment paper. So, the cake on the short side of the pan will be the ends of the rolls.

For the Filling:
- In a small mixing bowl, add cream cheese. Stir in powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth.
- Slowly, and gently unroll the cooled cake.
- Remove the top layer of parchment paper.
