Sugar
Walnuts or pecans, chopped
Mix
dough ingredients well and divide into 3 rolls; wrap in wax paper and
refrigerate overnight. Roll out (1 roll at a time) to about 1/8 inch
thickness. (Use flour on board and rolling pin to avoid sticking).
Spread jam, nuts and sugar on dough. Roll up like a jelly roll and cut
in slices of about 3/4 inch and place on greased tin. Bake in 350 degree
oven for about 20 to 25 minutes. (check after 15 minutes). Keep
checking for desired doneness.
(I don't think "doneness" is a word, but it's what the recipe said.)
When he steps into his physics class on the first day of senior year,
Quinn Walker is too exhausted from staying up all night with his
three-month-old nephew to deal with moral dilemmas. As a devout Mormon
who has vowed to wait until marriage for sex, the last thing he needs is
a very hot and very sexy Katarina Jackson as his physics partner.
Regrettably, he has no choice.
Kat feels invisible in her mansion of a home six months after losing her older brother in a fatal car crash and will do anything to get her parents? attention. Since her pastor father has no love for Quinn's "fake" religion and her ex-boyfriend refuses to leave her alone, she makes an impulsive bet with her friends to seduce her holier-than-thou lab partner by Christmas.

You may not be a baker by trade, but those cookies sound awesome!
So happy for Angela!
Sounds simple enough to make!
Congratulations, Angela.
Jelly role cookies. Yum! Thank you, Cherie, for posting this. Are you almost done with your Christmas shopping? Have you experienced "doneness?"
I know so many Mormon authors. This one sounds a little different than the standard fare though. Definitely worth investigating.
Mmm, cookies. I'll be making cookies tomorrow with Brandon, but I buy the already made dough! I'm at frozen pizza speed too. :)

Those cookies sound yummy, Cherie. I'll never get around to making them, though. Rolling pins and I don't get along.
Wow. What a set up for a story!
Best of luck. :)

I'm not much of a baker, either. Something as simple as cookies never fails to drive me crazy whenever I attempt cooking any!
