    Grease a jelly roll pan ( 15x10 ) and line with wax paper or parchment paper ; pour batter on paper and smooth out evenly on pan , Bake @ 375° for 12-15 minutes. While the cake is still HOT ; carefully loosen cake from the sides of the pan using a spatula ; sprinkle with powdered sugar , place a clean kitchen towel on top ; flip over to release the cake from the pan ; Instantly remove wax paper and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
