Categories     Desserts     Cakes

Time 20m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup sifted cake flour
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
2 eggs
¾ cup white sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons 2% milk
½ cup confectioners' sugar for dusting
1 cup strawberry jam

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan with parchment paper.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat eggs and sugar with an electric mixer until thick and pale, about 5 minutes. Stir in the vanilla and milk. Stir in the dry ingredients gradually. The batter will be thin. Pour into the prepared pan.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, until the center springs back when pressed lightly. Don't over bake, or it may crack.
  • Generously dust a clean dish towel with confectioners' sugar. Turn the cake out onto the towel, and peel off the parchment paper. Gently roll up the cake using the towel, and let cool for about 10 minutes.
  • Unroll the cake, and spread an even coating of jam onto the top. Roll the cake back up into a tight spiral, and remove the towel. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.

SHOWY " JELLY ROLL" MEATLOAF



Showy

This meatloaf is quite different from the other 1261 (at time of posting) meatloaf recipes. I got this recipe from Jean Pare's Company's Coming for Christmas cookbook. I have made this several times for company and also for "freezer shower" contributions after friends have had babies. So far, everyone who has tried it really likes it. I hope you will, too! Enjoy!

Categories     Meat

Time 1h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs lean ground beef
2 eggs
2 slices bread, fresh, blended to coarse crumbs
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup milk
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper, freshly ground
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
6 ham slices
10 ounces frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, grated

Steps:

  • Place first 9 ingredients in large bowl. Mix well. Pat out on sheet of foil to 10 x 12 inch (25 x 30 cm) size.
  • Lay ham slices on top, keeping 1 inch (2.5 cm) in from edges. Spread spinach over ham. Roll up starting from long end, removing foil as you go. Carefully transfer to baking sheet with sides. Pat in sides of meatloaf roll to smooth them. Bake in 350°F (175°C) oven for 1 1/4 hours.
  • Put grated mozzarella cheese on top of meatloaf. Return to oven for 1 to 2 minutes until cheese starts to melt. Cut into slices to serve.
  • NOTE: I frequently will place a wire rack in the baking sheet and transfer the meatloaf, foil and all, to the rack. I then poke holes in the foil to allow the fat to drain away from the meatloaf.

YUMMY MEATLOAF



Yummy Meatloaf image

What makes this meatloaf so good is how you cook it! It's very important to cook this in a baking dish rather than a loaf pan. The grease will drain from the meatloaf this way, and it will be firmer and taste better.
