I found the recipe, but I need help. I don't understand it. It's written out by hand by the woman and she probably understood what she meant, but I don't. LOL
Jewel Cake
Cream 3 sticks of oleo and add 1 1/2 C sugar, 6 egg yolks and 3 C flour. Blend til flour disappears. Fold in 6 beaten egg whites. Divide dough in 3. Butter and flour a cookie sheet with sides. Spread dough thin in pan, bake at 350 for 10-15 min. Do this to all 3 doughs.

This is what I don't understand. I am assuming I have to take each one out of the pan so I can bake the other 2. Does that sound right? How would I keep it from falling apart when I take it out? I am assuming this is a jelly roll pan.

So anyway, Blend 1/2 pt sour cream and 1 C chopped nuts. Spread 1/2 of this on top of the first dough. Then spread apricot preserves on top of that. (doesn't say how much.) Place second dough on top of that, and spread with the rest of the sour cream and nuts, then spread black raspberry preserves on top, then put the last dough on top of that. Put foil over that and place a heavy object on top to press down and set overnight in refrigerator.
Icing
6 tsp oleo
1 1/2 C powdered sugar
2 tsp vanilla
Whip oleo and vanilla, then add powdered sugar. Spread over top, and cut in squares.
I remember them being delicious, that's why we all wanted the recipe.
