FONUA'S TONGAN PIE (JELLY ROLL) RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Add milk & mix until not sticky but balls up. Roll out on floured surface about 1/4-1/3" thick. Spread with jam or jelly on entire surface leaving 1/2 " space along edges. Roll dough into one large log & fold ends under to keep jelly from oozing out. Transfer to foil lined cookie sheet. Bake at 275 degrees for 45 minutes.
