  2. Beat the eggs and sugar until thick and pale, then mix in the molasses.
  3. Fold in the dry ingredients until just combined.
  4. Spread onto a parchment-lined jelly roll pan and bake at 350°F for 10 to 12 minutes.

  7. Unroll the cooled cake, spread with filling, and roll back up without the towel.
  8. Wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before slicing.
