Preparation |
Mix all ingredients together for the pastry. Margarine should be room temperature. Roll out dough with a rolling pin as you would a pie crust. Divide dough into 2 or 3 pieces. Cook all ingredients for filling in sauce pot until well blended, then add crumbled pound cake. Mixture will be of a spreading consistency. Spread over dough, roll dough as a jelly roll. You should be able to get about 3 small jelly rolls. Bake on a cookie sheet in 350 degree oven until golden brown. Let cool, cut into slices and enjoy! Serving varies. |
