BUCHE DE NOEL
Buche de Noel is the French name for a trunk-shaped Christmas cake. This dessert is made of chocolate, made without flour and rolled with whipped cream. Traditionally it is decorated with confectioners' sugar to resemble snow on a log.
Preparation time:
45 minutes
Cooking time:
15 minutes
Serve for:
12 people
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 egg yolks
1/2 cup white sugar
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
6 egg whites
1/4 cup white sugar
confectioners' sugar for dusting
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan with baking paper. In a large bowl, whip the cream, 1/2 cup of powdered sugar, 1/2 cup of cocoa and 1 teaspoon of vanilla until a thick and stiff mixture is obtained. Refrigerate.
- In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat egg yolks with 1/2 cup sugar until thick and pale. Blend in 1/3 cup cocoa, 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla, and salt. In large glass bowl, using clean beaters, whip egg whites to soft peaks. Gradually add 1/4 cup sugar, and beat until whites form stiff peaks. Immediately fold the yolk mixture into the whites. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the cake comes back when lightly touched. Dust a clean cloth with confectioners' sugar. Make a knife around the edge of the pan and turn the hot cake over the towel. Remove and discard the baking paper. Starting from the short edge of the cake, roll the cake with the towel. Cool for 30 minutes.
- Unroll the cake, and spread the filling to within 1 inch of the edge. Roll the cake up with the filling inside. Place seam side down onto a serving plate, and refrigerate until serving. Dust with confectioners' sugar before serving.
Note: In this recipe you can use parchment paper instead of baking paper.
I recommend this cake full of passion, especially on Christmas evening.
Enjoy it.
