How do you bake a cake in a jelly roll pan?
You need to specifically use a jelly roll cake recipe. It’s a softer cake and rolls better than most. You also have to roll the cake while it’s still warm and pliable. 1 cup sifted cake flour (sift before measuring) 1 cup sugar 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup softened butter or vegetable shortening (or a mixture) 4 large eggs 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1/4 cup confectioners’ sugar 1 cup seedless red raspberry or apricot jam Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a jelly roll pan; line with parchment or waxed paper and grease paper. Stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl. Add the butter, 2 eggs, and the vanilla to the dry ingredients and beat with an electric mixer on high speed until fluffy. Separate the remaining 2 eggs. Place the whites in a small bowl and beat the yolks into the batter. With clean beaters, beat the egg whites at high speed until they are stiff; fold beaten whites into the batter just until no white streaks rem
