I loved the days my Mom made jelly rolls. The words “jelly roll’ is its own definition. jellyroll – thin sheet of sponge cake spread with jelly and then rolled up to make a cylindrical cake.
Ingredients
- 5 eggs, separated
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup Domino granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup cake flour, sifted
- 1/2 tsp double acting baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Domino's powdered sugar
- tart jelly
- sweetened whip cream (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Step 2
Combine yolks and vanilla extract in a large bowl and beat well. Gradually beat the granulated sugar into the egg yolks until light and fluffy.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff but not dry. Fold gently into yolk mixture.
Step 4
Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together and fold gently into egg mixture.
Step 5
Spread the batter into a 10x15 jelly roll pan, generously greased and lined with waxed paper and greased again.
Step 6
Bake for 15 minutes or until done. Invert onto oven linen towel dusted with powdered sugar.
Step 7
