Can you use a cookie sheet with a rim instead of a jelly roll pan?

RE: Can you use a cookie sheet with a rim instead of a jelly roll pan? Post By penny (Guest Post) (11/12/2006) i bought an expensive jelly roll pan and found out that I like the cookie sheet much better. I usually line the cookie sheet with wax paper. It cooks much faster and more uniformly, I think. RE: Can you use a cookie sheet with a rim instead of a jelly roll pan?

If you don't want to use/buy parchment or wax paper.... foil, greased works great. RE: Can you use a cookie sheet with a rim instead of a jelly roll pan? Post by teachpad (30) | (11/01/2006) Profile | Contact Jelly roll pans are supposed to measure 10 1/2 by 15 1/2 by 1/2 inch, and they always have sides. Cookie sheets sometimes have sides and sometimes don't, it just depends on what you are using them for. A large cookie sheet with sides will probably work, but you may have a thicker or thinner cake layer, depending on if your cookie sheet is larger or smaller than a jelly roll pan. If you don't have parchment paper to use in the bottom of your pan, just use waxed paper and grease the top of it. Your cake should come out easily. Just peel the waxed paper off after removing the cake from the pan. Jelly rolls are a easy dessert to make, and they make a spectular presentation. Have fun, and may all your jelly rolls be light! P.S. Did you know that if you use shiny cookie sheets with no sides, your cookies will rarely burn? Yup. Learned that in college Home Economics class, and it has proven true every time!

I've often used edged cookie sheets for things other than cookies RE: Can you use a cookie sheet with a rim instead of a jelly roll pan?

I didn't want to buy a jelly roll pan to make just the pumpkin roll. I put the pumpkin roll in the freezer for Thanksgiving. RE: Can you use a cookie sheet with a rim instead of a jelly roll pan?
