• 300 ml cream
• 1 tbsp powdered sugar
• zest of 1 orange

Recipe step by step:

Preparing the biscuit:

1. Turn on the oven and preheat it to 180 degrees.
2. In a bowl, using a mixer, beat the eggs with sugar until foamy cream appears.

3. Sift the flour and vanilla into the resulting mixture and mix thoroughly.

4. Grease a baking sheet with butter, cover it with parchment, which is also grease with butter.
5. Place the dough on a baking sheet, smooth it out and bake in a preheated oven for 10 minutes.

6. Take out the finished biscuit and turn it over onto a damp towel. Carefully remove the parchment, roll the biscuit into a roll and leave to cool.

Tip: to make the parchment easier to come away from the biscuit, you need to lightly moisten it with water.

Preparing the filling:

1. In a chilled bowl, begin whipping the cream on low speed.
2. Once the cream begins to thicken, add the orange zest and powdered sugar, increasing the speed of the mixer.

Note: you can make a lower-calorie version of the cream by replacing the cream with cottage cheese, and increasing the amount of powdered sugar to 2 tbsp.

3. Wash the cherries, dry them, remove the pits and cut them into pieces.

Assembling the roll

1. Unwrap the biscuit, coat with cream and sprinkle with cherry pieces.

2. Roll the biscuit again, wrap it in parchment and put it in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours.
3. Before serving, remove the parchment, cut the roll into pieces and, if desired, decorate with cherries.
