Jelly Roll

Jelly Roll

1 c sifted flour 1 tsp baking powder Pinch salt                                sift together

4 eggs                                       beat until light and foamy

1 c sugar                                   beat into the foamy eggs, then fold in the flour

½ tsp lemon flavoring              add

10x15 cookie sheet lined and greased 375o F for 12 to 15 minutes, but watch carefully so you don’t overcook it

Turn onto a moist towel sprinkled with icing sugar. Spread with jam, roll up using the towel to help while still warm. If the edges crack and give you grief cut them off with a very sharp bread knife. Wrap in towel until cool, at least a ½ hour.

Here’s another nostalgic recipe that brings back memories of threshing days…my mother made it a lot to go with afternoon coffee when there were hard workers with appetites about.
