Step-by-Step Instructions for Candy Cane Roll
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 15x10-inch baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly coat it with cooking spray.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and kosher salt. Set aside.
- Using a stand mixer or handheld mixer, beat egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Gradually add granulated sugar to the whipped egg whites while mixing on low speed, then gently fold in the dry ingredient mixture.
- Divide the batter into two bowls; keep one white and add red gel food coloring to the other.
- Transfer red and white batters to separate piping bags. Pipe alternating lines on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
- Carefully roll the warm cake in the parchment paper from one short end to the other and let it cool completely before unrolling.
- Spread frosting over the unrolled cake, then re-roll it tightly and coat with crushed candy canes.
