Blackberry Jelly Roll
Blackberry Filling:
1 pt blackberries (2 Cups)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp grated lemon rind
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
Jelly roll:
1/4 Cup confectioner's sugar
1 Cup all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
4 eggs
3/4 Cup granulated sugar
2 t grated lemon rind
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 t vanilla
Prepare filling: Combine blackberries, sugar and lemon rind
and juice in saucepan. Heat over medium high heat 5-7 minutes,
until berries have released their liquid and can be easily
broken apart with a spoon. I would add some cornstarch, maybe
a teaspoon or so, because the stuff is SO runny! Cool
completely.
Prepare jelly roll: Heat oven to 375. Coat 15x10x1 1/2 inch
jelly roll pan with nonstick cooking spray. Line with waxed
paper; coat paper with spray. Dust clean kitchen cloth with 2
T of the confectioner's sugar.
Whisk flour, baking powder and salt in small bowl. In
medium sized bowl, with electric mixer on medium speed, beat
eggs for about 5 min. until thick and lemon colored. Gradually
add granulated sugar until will blended. Beat in lemon rind
and juice and vanilla. Gently fold in flour mixture until well
combined. Scrape batter into prepared pan, spreading evenly.
Bake in 375 oven for 12-15 minutes or till top springs back
when lightly touched.
Immediately invert cake onto cloth dusted with sugar.
Remove paper; roll up cloth and cake together from a LONG
side. Cool completely on rack. Unroll. Spread evenly with
filling, reroll, and dust with remaining powdered sugar.
