3655.0. "Jelly Roll" by WAKIKI::SWANTON_M () Mon Oct 12 1992 13:38

    Hi!
    
    Does anyone have a recipe for a jelly roll?  You know, the kind
    mom used to make when we were kids, with the sticky cake and sweet
    jelly?  My mom can't remember the recipe and can't find her old one?
    
    Any help or pointers would be appreciated!
    
    thanks

3655.1Try Betty Crocker CookbookCUPTAY::FARINAMon Oct 12 1992 19:546
    The Betty Crocker cookbook has a very good jelly roll recipe - at least
    my edition does!  I'll try to remember to bring it in, but I don't get
    to read this file very often.

    Rolled Cake
    
    4 eggs
    1/2 t. cream of tartar
    1 c. sugar
    1/4 c. water
    1 1/2 t. vanilla
    1 c. sifted cake flour
    1/4 t. salt
    1 c. jelly, slightly beaten
    
    Beat eggs until frothy, add cream of tartar, beat slightly.  Add sugar
    gradually, beat until mixutre is thick and piles softly; beat in water
    and vanilla.  Sift flour and salt together over mixture; continue
    beating just until smooth.  Scrape bowl during mixing.  Pour into
    greased and lined jelly roll pan (15.5x10.5x1-inch) Bake at 350 F. 15
    to 20 minutes.  Loosen edges of cake with knife.  Turn immediately onto
    towel lightly dusted with confectioner's sugar; remove paper and cut
    off any crisp edges of cake.  To roll, begin by rolling nearest edge of
    cake; using towl as a guide, tightly grasp nearest edge of towel and
    gently pulli t over beyond opposite edge; cake will roll itself as you
    pull towel.  Wrap roll loosely in towel to cool (about 15 min).  When
    cool, unroll carefully and spread with jelly.  Reroll; sprinkle top
    with confectioner's sugar.  
    
    Variations:
    
    Lemon Roll: Spread cake roll with lemon custard
    
    Marshmallow Chocolate Roll: Decrease flour to 3/4 c.  Sift 5 T. cocoa
    with dry ingredients Bake at 325 F. about 30 minutes.  Spread with
    Marshmallow fluff instead of jelly.
