The roll is yummy, perhaps milk would be a better substitute for water. and make sure not to OVER cook the cake, not even a few minutes longer... you'll get a not so fluffy, spongey taste. I wish there was an EASIER way to keep the roll, rolled! :o) perhaps even sticking toothpicks in it to hold it in place until slicing it onto someone's lucky plate ?? :o)

EXCELLENT! This was my first time making a jelly roll. I followed the recipe exactly as written including the times alloted. It turned out perfect! Thank you Barb Maxwell, not only for the recipe but for your review telling about the cream cheese mixture as an added bonus. It was a real hit at our house.

This recipe is AWFUL! It was dry and cracked every time. I actually tried it 3 times, determined to get the recipe to work. Finally after an 1 1/2 hours and a huge waste of supplies I pulled out my Betty Crocker cook book and snap I took a perfect Jelly roll out of my oven 20 min later.

I was so sad this did not turn out. Something must be missing. I did not over bake it but it seemed like there was not enough cake there. This even stuck to the parchment paper. I still continued on with this and wasted almost a whole jar of my strawberry preserves. Sorry.

I followed this recipe exactly and the cake came out very dry and chewy. I did bake for more than 8 mins because the cake was definitely not ready to come out of the oven. Other than that, I did not do anything different.

This recipe turned out perfectly! I have a hard time making jelly rolls without them cracking or breaking, but this recipe provided just the right "sponginess", so it didn't break when rolling. I let the cake cool for a few minutes before I attempted to roll it the first time.

Great just like grandma made them. I added a hint more sugar to give a sweeter taste. Work great.

I really was hoping for a better result. I even tried it a second time when the first one didn't turn out. However, I only baked for 8 min. and followed the recipe EXACTLY and when I unrolled it to put the jelly on, the cake cracked and fell apart. The cake itself did had a good flavor though.

I am an expert at making other cake rolls - I followed this recipe exactly and it was a very dry crumbled mess. I can't recomend this.

this was pretty good, but I didnt use jelly. I used ice cream. I got the idea from a recipe book I had on hand. I used butter pecan ice cream with cream cheese frosting. Not low-fat, but definitely yummy.

My husband asked me for a jelly roll out of the blue and though I love to cook I feared it was going to be a challange but this recipe is fool proof and the jelly roll turned out great. I added the cream cheese recipe and it was perfect!!!!

I wanted to make a couple comments since I am the one who submitted this recipe and parts were edited out or changed before posting. First, any flavor of jam will do. Use your favorite. I just happen to like homemade strawberry freezer jam. Also, this recipe does NOT require the milk to be 2%. Whole milk is fine. And, for optional added elegence, you can use a creamed mixture of 8 oz cream cheese, (softened) 1 cup confectioner's sugar and 1 tsp of vanilla. Beat until creamy and spread on roll before spreading jam if desired. This creamed part is just a nice added bonus. Sorry, I don't know why this were changed or left out of the recipe.
