To make this Enchanted Yule Log, you will need the following ingredients:
For the chocolate sponge cake:
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
For the whipped cream:
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the chocolate ganache:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 8 oz semisweet chocolate chips
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar until light and fluffy. Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder and fold gently until well combined. Pour the batter into a greased and lined baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
While the cake is baking, prepare the whipped cream by beating the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
To make the chocolate ganache, heat the heavy cream in a saucepan until it comes to a simmer. Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips. Stir until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.
Once the cake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Then, carefully roll the cake into a log shape using a clean kitchen towel. Let it cool completely.
Once the cake has cooled, unroll it and spread the whipped cream over the surface. Roll the cake back up and place it on a serving platter. Pour the chocolate ganache over the top of the cake and use a spatula to spread it evenly.
The Enchanted Yule Log is now ready to serve. This dessert is a perfect combination of rich chocolate, fluffy whipped cream, and smooth ganache. It is sure to impress your guests and leave them enchanted.
