I loved the days my Mm made jelly rolls. The words "jelly roll' is its own defintion. jellyroll - thin sheet of sponge cake spread with jelly and then rolled up to make a cylindrical cake. In looking at the recipe and I see the ingredient "double acting baking powder". Ever wonder what that meant? Baking powder which lightens or “leavens” many baked goods is “double acting.” Half its reaction is due to moistening the batter and causing the acidic agent to react with the alkaline agent. The other half occurs when the batter reaches a certain temperature.
 
Ingredients
5 eggs separated 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 cup Domino granulated sugar 3/4 cup sifted cake flour
1/2 tsp double acting baking powder 1/4 tsp salt
Domino's powdered sugar tart jelly
sweetened whip cream optional ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  
 
Directions
Combine yolks and extract in a large bowl and beat well. Gradually beat the granulated sugar into the egg yolks until light and fluffy. In a separate bowl, beat egg white until stiff but not dry. Fold gently into yolk mixture. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt together; fold gently into egg mixture. Spread the batter into a 10x15 jelly roll pan generously greased, lined with waxed paper and greased again. Bake in a moderate oven 350 degrees - 15 minutes or until done. Invert onto oven linen towel dusted with powdered sugar. Remove wax paper. Roll the narrow edge of the cake by lifting and pushing gently with the towel. Wrap cloth tightly around roll and cool on rack with open edge of cake turned down. Unroll cake, spread with jelly, roll again without towel and dust with powdered sugar. Serve with whipped cream.
