I have a brownie recipe that calls for a jelly roll pan and I thought jelly roll pans have very short sides, why would you put a brownie recipe in this pan? Brownies are supposed to be thick, not thin. I don't understand the use of this pan.

A jelly roll pan is a cake pan with very short sides. It is usually used in a recipe where you bake a thin layer of cake, then ice it and then roll it up like a yule log. When you cut it, it has a nice spiral effect.

you can use a sheet pan, like the ones you make cookies with. just make sure it has an edge of about an inch or so.
grease and flower well so the cake doesn't stick to the bottom, or your brownies since you said it's a brownie recipe.
it might be that your recipe calls for a sheet pan bcse it's a large recipe or that the brownies will enlarge but not over flow your pan.
i made a batch of barefoot contessa brownies on a sheet pan and they swelled to the top of the sheet but never came over the edge. were thick enough and sooo fudgy.
and yes you use it to make jelly, pumpkin rolls and other rolled cakes.

It's a pan that is like 12 x 16 or something .. larger than a 13 x 9 pan but it is very shallow... like only an inch high... it gets its name from making a think flat cake that is spread with filling and then rolled into a jellyroll... the Texas Sheet Cake brownies always call for this type of pan

A jelly-roll pan is a baking sheet with sides. The sides are 1-inch deep. I always make brownies thick but maybe your recipe is speical.

Brownies really don't rise much and the inch-tall sides of a jelly roll pan would expose more of the surface and make the top of the brownies crispier. Other than that, I agree with the first Answerer: use whatever pan you want to use (but not a cookie sheet:-).
