# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat the oven to 175°C. Line a 25 x 38 cm jelly roll pan with parchment paper, ensuring parchment hangs over the edges.
02 -
In a large bowl, combine chocolate cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, water, and 0.5 tsp vanilla extract. Beat until the batter is smooth and homogeneous.
03 -
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly to the edges. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the centre emerges clean.
04 -
While the cake bakes, lay a clean kitchen towel on the countertop and dust generously with 60 g powdered sugar to prevent sticking.
05 -
Once baked, immediately invert the hot cake onto the sugared towel. Peel off the parchment paper. While warm, roll the cake up from the short side with the towel inside. Allow to cool completely in rolled form.
06 -
In a bowl, beat cream cheese and unsalted butter until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and remaining 0.5 tsp vanilla extract, mixing until fully blended. Gently fold in the crushed Oreo cookies.
07 -
Carefully unroll the cooled cake. Evenly spread the Oreo cream cheese filling over the surface, avoiding the outermost edge.
08 -
Reroll the cake tightly without the towel. Wrap in plastic film and refrigerate for at least 60 minutes to set completely.
09 -
Melt the white chocolate and drizzle over the chilled roll. Garnish with whole or additional crushed Oreos as desired. Slice with a sharp knife and serve chilled.
# Notes:
01 -
Rolling the sponge while warm prevents cracking; dust the towel generously with powdered sugar for easy release. Chill thoroughly before slicing and clean the knife between cuts for neat presentation.

For a gluten-free adaptation, substitute with gluten-free chocolate cake mix. Mini chocolate chips may be folded into the filling for added indulgence.
