Jelly Roll

This handwritten Jelly Roll recipe gives the ingredients and directions for mixing the batter, but stops before telling us how to bake, fill or roll it. An additional untitled list of ingredients appears at the bottom of the same sheet. It may be connected to the Jelly Roll or may belong to another recipe entirely—there simply isn’t enough information on the page to know for sure.
