Candy Cane Cake Roll/Kelli’s Kitchen

There are lots of cake rolls around Pinterest these days and I am no exception. Ever since I found out I can make a roulade, or cake roll from a cake mix I have been trying all different kinds of tastes. That’s when I decided to make something light, pretty and pink just in time for the holidays. I was going to send half of it over to mom’s and take half to work. Instead, Mr. Picky Eater would not let it leave the house! It is pretty darn good – that’s for sure and has layers and layers of flavor but easy enough that you could make this in one evening for a holiday party. This is all you will need:

Ingredients

1 ¾ Cups boxed white cake mix – dry
4 eggs whites (so it will be as white as you can make it)
1/3 Cup water
2 Tablespoons vegetable oil
¼-1/2 Cup powdered Sugar
Parchment paper
Floured non stick spray
1 clean T Towel
1 Jelly Roll Pan

Directions

Pre-heat the oven to 350 F
Spray the jelly roll pan, place parchment paper and spray again
Put the egg whites in a bowl and turn the mixer on high for about 3 minutes.
Add water and oil then dry cake mix and mix well.
Spoon and spread onto jelly roll pan.
Place in oven for 8-11 minutes.
