Fill this jelly roll recipe with your favorite preserves, jam, or jelly.

Ingredients:

  • 3/4 cup cake flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 4 eggs
  • 3/4 cup sifted sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup strawberry preserves, currant jelly, seedless raspberry jam, etc.

Preparation:

Sift flour once, then measure. Combine baking powder, salt, and eggs in a bowl. Place bowl over a pan or bowl of hot water then beat with an electric mixer until egg mixture is thick and light lemon-colored. Remove bowl from the pan or bowl of hot water. Fold in flour and vanilla. Line a 15x10x1-inch jelly roll pan with greased wax paper or parchment paper. Spread batter in prepared pan; bake at 400° for 13 minutes or until just done. The center should spring back when lightly touched. Quickly trim crisp edges from cake. Turn out onto a clean dish towel which has beef liberally sprinkled with confectioners' sugar. Peel paper from bottom of cake. Quickly spread with jelly or jam and roll up. Wrap in cloth and cool on rack.

Jelly Roll ConfusionMarch 12, 2008By ACWP
"I have made this recipe twice, both times it has been a hard, thin unusable piece of cake. The directions are not clear on when to use the sifted sugar, and the amount of batter does not fit in the 15*10 inch pan. And the recipe isn't written with the ingredients in order of usage. Ill just have to track down my mother's old recipe."
