Recipe
This dulce de leche cake roll is decadent, creamy, and perfect for just about any occasion. Made with just 6 ingredients, it's deceptively simple!
Ingredients
- 6 eggs
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup flour
- 26 oz dulce de leche
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream very cold
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Next, beat the eggs with 1 cup of sugar until the mixture doubles in volume. In thirds, fold the flour into the egg mixture, being extra careful not to over mix the batter.
- Spread the batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (10" X 15" is the perfect size). Bake for 12 minutes. Once to comes out of the oven, place a towel on top of the cake and roll it into a spiral. Set the cake aside to cool completely.
- To make the frosting, use a stand mixer or hand mixer to beat the softened butter and half of the dulce de leche until smooth.
- Next, add in the extra cold heavy whipping cream and whisk on high speed. Once it reaches stiff peaks, immediately stop whisking it.
- Microwave the other half of the dulce de leche for about 30 seconds, or until it softens. Gently, unroll the cake and remove the parchment paper. Spread the dulce de leche onto the cake roll, followed by a layer of the dulce de leche frosting. Roll the cake back up and apply the remaining frosting to the outside of the cake.
- Decorate the cake by sprinkling the top with crushed caramel candy or drizzling it with dulce de leche. Enjoy immediately or allow the cake to set in the refrigerator for an hour before serving!

Hi! I had a question for you about the servings. If I want to make it for 20 servings I see the measurements adjust (which is great) but do I need to use additional baking sheets and bake the dough in two parts meaning two rolls?
Or a bigger baking sheet?
Thank you for sharing the recipe
Hey Ale, the measurement configuration would get tricky with cake. I would suggest just cutting it in half or doubling the recipe. That tool is meant more of non baking recipes. Enjoy
I plan to make this delicious cake soon. How long do I keep the cans of sweetened condensed milk in the boiling water?
Typically for 3 hours, be sure that the cans are covered the entire time. You can also make dulce de leche in an instant pot, really fast and easy. Here is the link: https://momsdish.com/easy-ins…
Good afternoon Natalya
I have a question where did u get ur towel to roll the cake ? And how did u make it hard cany that u crashed it ?
The towel is from Ikea, I had it for a while.
The candy is a combo of sugar and water that I cooked on the stovetop. I poured on a parchment paper and after it has hardened I broke it.
Hi!
What candies did you use for decorating on top?
I cooked sugar with water and created candy. I need to add instructions to the the recipe.
Yes please. You need to add your website about how to created candy for decorating the cake.
Hey Liliya, this is great feedback. I think everyone gets creative in their own way. I will share a tip for it. Thank you!
Hi, Thank you so much for putting the effort in your blog and sharing your recipies with everyone!! this Seems simple I want to make it,I was wondering did you just roll it up in a towel as soon as it came out the oven and in the lined paper?
Btw, thank you for following along and using the recipes from my blog. I appreciate when you guys comment and say hi!
Hey Anna, I put it in a towel because its easier to roll it up this way and when it cool to a room temperature, it keeps the shape. Most towels should stick to the cake cake, they are easy to remove.
