Bolo de rolo
A dessert from Pernambuco made with very thin layers of butter, egg, and sugar dough, rolled successively with guava jam.
This bolo de rolo follows a Brazilian version made with enriched dough and vanilla seeds. Several thin, flexible sheets are baked and rolled one over another with a thin layer of guava jam. Sources vary in their proportions and baking methods; this version uses 260 g of each main dough ingredient and bakes the sheets at 170 °C.
Method
- 01
Make the batter
Beat the butter with the refined sugar and vanilla seeds until creamy and paler. Add the egg yolks one at a time. Mix in the sifted flour, then gently fold in the egg whites beaten to stiff peaks.

Shape and bake the sheets
Preheat the oven to 170 °C. Line a medium baking sheet with baking parchment or a silicone mat and spread a portion of batter in a very thin, even layer. Bake each sheet for about 10 minutes; repeat with the remaining batter to make 4–6 sheets.

Roll the layers
Sprinkle the crystal sugar over a clean cloth. As the first sheet comes out of the oven, turn it onto the cloth and remove the parchment if used. Spread a thin layer of guava jam over it and roll carefully. Spread a thin layer of jam over the next freshly baked sheet and place the earlier roll at one edge; use the sheet to wrap around it. Repeat with the remaining sheets and jam.

Cool and serve
Cover the roll with a cloth and let it cool. Cut it into thin slices to serve.
