of the size usually used in roasting meats. The batter should
be one-fourth inch deep, for if it is thicker the cake will not roll
easily. Bake six to eight minutes in a moderate oven (350° F.),
watching closely, as it bakes quickly. When done, remove from
the oven, and when cool enough to handle, turn out on to a
cloth. Cut off the side crusts, spread the jelly over the surface,
roll up and wrap the cloth about it to keep it in shape. If the
cake was spread too thick in the pan and will not roll, cut it
into three parts and lay one upon the other with jelly between.
This makes a most delicious layer cake. In this case, frost with
a boiled frosting, and sprinkle with a layer of coconut.
