Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, spices, and salt in a bowl.
In another bowl, beat eggs and sugars until thick. Mix in vanilla; gradually add dry ingredients and fold in grated carrots.
Spread batter evenly in the pan and bake for 10-12 minutes until springy to touch.
Once baked, invert onto a powdered sugar-dusted towel and roll up; cool completely.
Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and butter until smooth for the filling.
Unroll cooled cake, spread filling evenly, re-roll without towel, refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
