Swiss Roll: A Failed Attempt

Was in a cake baking mood last night and decided to try the simplest cake recipe possible on earth: The Swiss Roll.

I do not own a electric egg beater hence I had to whisk the egg into a firm form using a simple egg beater. The egg and sugar mixture was supposed to be fluffy enough to have a spoon go through it without its path disappearing. Let me tell you that the whole egg beating thing was a serious workout for my biceps.

Unfortunately, I over cooked the sponge cake and it cracked once I started rolling it.

The presentation was bad but it tasted alright. Anyway, I am in the market for an electric beater. I need to perfect this recipe before I can move on to more complicated stuff.
