Does anyone know a recipe for a coffee YULE LOG cake?
My friend and i are doing a project for French class.
We really want our Yule log cake to be coffee flavor!!
Does anyone know a good recipe?
Thanks alot(:
Answer: Yule log Cake
INGREDIENTS:
Filling:
1/2 c. Heavy Cream
6 tbsp. Confectioners' Sugar
2 tsp. instant espresso or instant coffee
1 lb. mascarpone cheese, softened
Cake and Frosting:
3/4 c. all-purpose flour
1/4 c. Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 tsp. baking powder
1/4 t. salt
5 large eggs, room temperature
3/4 c. granulated sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
INSTRUCTIONS:
For the filling: Bring the cream to a simmer in a small saucepan over high heat. Off the heat, stir in the confectioners’ sugar and espresso and let cool slightly. Gently whisk the cooled cream mixture into the softened mascarpone until combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
For the cake: Adjust an oven rack to the lower-middle position and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease an 18 by 13-inch rimmed baking sheet, line the bottom with parchment paper, and grease the paper. Whisk the flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl.
In a large bowl, whip the eggs with an electric mixer on medium-high speed and gradually add the sugar, about 1 minute. Continue to whip the mixture until very thick and voluminous, 4 to 8 minutes. Whip in the vanilla. Sift the flour mixture over the egg mixture and fold with a rubber spatula until just incorporated.
Scrape the batter into the prepared baking sheet and spread out to an even layer. Bake the cake until it feels firm and springs back when touched, 12 to 17 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through baking.
Immediately run a knife around the edge of the cake and flip the hot cake out onto a large sheet of greased parchment paper. Peel off and discard the parchment paper baked on the bottom of the cake. Starting from a long end, roll the cake snugly around the large sheet of parchment into a log and let cool for 15 minutes.
Beat the filling until stiff with an electric mixer on medium-high speed, 10 to 30 seconds. Gently unroll the cake. Spread the filling over the cake, leaving a 1/2-inch border at the edges. Reroll the cake gently but snugly around the filling. Following the photos, cut a 2- to 3-inch piece off one end of the cake at an angle and reserve.
Line the edges of a cake platter with strips of parchment and arrange the chocolate roll on the platter. Frost the cake evenly with 2 cups of the frosting. Attach the reserved trim piece on top of the cake (to look like a stump) and frost with the remaining frosting. Using a fork, make a wood grain pattern in the frosting all over the cake.

Recipe for dairy free YULE LOG or anything similar?
My son has been diagnosed as lactose intolerant (finally!) and can have no dairy whatsoever, I want to be able to give him somethong on christmas day when the rest of us are eating puddings and Yule logs etc, but I can find nothing dairy free in the shop. Does anyone have a recipe for something like this chocolate if possible?
Answer: I'm dairy intolerant, and this is what I do...Xmas pudding made the traditional way, but use apple juice instead of milk to bind it. Soya cream or soya ice cream with it.(or soya custard - available in cartons and not too bad!) For a Yule log, use Pure non-dairy margarine to make the log (any normal recipe is fine) and use water instead of milk in the mix. For the icing, Pure again with Green & Black's very dark chocolate (suitable for vegans).
Good luck.

What is the origin of the YULE LOG burning on TV?
I used to think this was something a local TV station did because they were not a major network (just a local outlet) and therefore saw no point in having programming on TV.
I did not know this was relatively more common (and indeed, I recently saw a couple of TVs with a burning Yule log at Bloomingdales). I think its absolutely hilarious (its not like anyone can ever feel the heat, although I suppose it is environmentally better. :P)
What is the origins of TV networks showing nothing but the burning Yule log on Christmas Day?
Answer: he Yule log was created in 1966 by Fred M. Thrower, President and CEO of WPIX, Inc. Inspired by an animated Coca-Cola commercial a year earlier that showed Santa Claus at a fireplace, he envisioned this television program as a televised Christmas gift to those residents of "The Big Apple" who lived in apartments and homes without fireplaces. This also provided time for employees of the TV station to stay home with their families, instead of working for the usual morning news program.
The original film was shot at Gracie Mansion, the official residence of the Mayor of New York City John Lindsay. An estimated US $4,000 of advertising (along with a roller derby telecast that night) was canceled on Christmas Eve for the show's inaugural airing. Thrower, and WPIX-FM programming director Charlie Whittaker selected the music, largely based on the easy listening format the radio station had at that time, with the likes of Percy Faith (whose rendition of "Joy to the World" is played at the beginning and the end of the telecast), Nat King Cole, Arthur Fiedler and the Boston Pops, Mantovani, and the Ray Conniff Singers to name a few. During the shoot, the producers removed a protective fire grate so that the blaze could be seen to its best advantage. Unfortunately, a stray spark damaged a nearby antique rug valued at $4,000.
The program was both a critical and ratings success, and by popular demand, it was rebroadcast for 23 consecutive years, beginning in 1967. However, by 1969 it was already clear that the original 16 mm film was quickly deteriorating from wear and needed to be re-shot. (In addition, the original loop was only seventeen seconds long, resulting in a visibly jerky and artificial appearance.) Station producer William Cooper, a future recipient of a Peabody Award, again asked to shoot the loop at Gracie Mansion; however, the mayor's office refused permission. So in 1970, WPIX found a fireplace with similar andirons at a residence in California and filmed a burning log on 35 mm film there on a hot August day. This version's loop runs approximately six minutes and three seconds [1].

Can YULE LOG be made like mousse or it is only rolled sponge cake?
In common "Yule log" is a kind of sponge cake rolled in cylindrical shape and frosted with cream, chocolate or something like that. recently I saw a dessert, which was named "Yule log" but that is white chocolate mousse with raspberry filling in the centre. Yes, it was in cylindrical shape. Can that type of mousse be called the Yule log?
Answer: All 'Yule logs' are made from a jelly roll type of cake. What you put inside it doesn't matter, the choice is yours. You can use a white jelly roll cake mix, with a raspberry and white chocolate mousse frosting, and then you would call it a 'Birch wood Yule log'...!

Looking for YULE LOG chocolate filling thats not whipped creamy.?
Im looking for a recipe that I can use to fill my Yule log. I want it to be chocolate, but not taste like chocolate whipped cream. I prefer the sweet taste of milk chocolate, so as long as it doesnt taste bitter, or like dark chocolate, Im game. Help?
Answer: Chocolate Yule log recipe
Takes 50 minutes to make, plus chilling
300g Bourneville chocolate, broken up
6 large eggs, separated
175g golden caster sugar
Icing sugar, to dust
For the filling
4 tbsp Nutella spread
250g tub mascarpone
2 tbsp brandy
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/fan160°C/gas 4. Grease and line a 28 x 38cm Swiss roll tin with baking paper. Put 175g of the chocolate into a bowl over a pan of simmering water and heat gently until melted. Remove from the heat and stir until smooth.
2. Put the egg yolks and sugar into a large bowl. Using an electric hand whisk, whisk until mousse-like, then whisk in the melted chocolate.
3. In a dry, grease-free bowl, whisk the egg whites to soft peaks. Stir a little into the chocolate mixture, then carefully fold in the rest with a metal spoon. Pour into the tin and bake for 20-25 minutes, until spongy to the touch. Cool for 10 minutes, then cover with a damp tea towel. When cool, chill for at least 2 hours or overnight.
4. While the roulade is chilling, make the filling. Mix the Nutella and mascarpone together until smooth. Gradually mix in the brandy. Cover and chill until needed.
5. Carefully turn out the roulade on a sheet of baking paper. (At this stage, you can wrap it in cling film and freeze for up to one month. When ready to use, thaw at room temperature, then fill and roll.)
6. Make the chocolate ‘bark’. Melt the remaining chocolate as before, then allow to cool for 10 minutes. Pour onto a baking tray lined with baking paper and thinly spread out with a spatula. Chill for 8-10 minutes, until the chocolate is firm but still pliable. Tear the chocolate into small jagged pieces. Put in a single layer on a large lined baking sheet. Chill for 15 minutes until crisp.
7. Spread half the filling over the roulade. Holding the baking paper, lift up the nearest short edge to you and carefully roll up the roulade – don’t worry if it cracks. Transfer to a plate. Spread the rest of the filling over the top of the roulade, then arrange the chocolate on top, overlapping. Chill for 1 hour. Dust with icing sugar to serve.

Can anyone suggest a YULE LOG recipe?
I need to make a Yule log for christmas, but as it is my first time making it I feel a little wary looking at the recipes. The stork margarine recipe looked quite easy but I cant find the magazine I had it in, so if anyone knows it that would be great. If not could you suggest another one? I need it to be quite large (I have a 15"x10" tin) as it needs to feed quite a lot.
Thank you and Merry Christmas!
Answer: Yule log
Ingredients:
Cake:
2/3 cup flour
1/4 teaspoon soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
3 squares unsweetened chocolate
2 tablespoons water
Filling:
1/2 pint whipped cream
2 tablespoons icing (confectioners') sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
Icing:
1/3 cup butter
2 cups icing (confectioners') sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
2 tablespoons milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Directions:
Cake:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 15 x 10 inch jelly roll pan, and line with waxed paper. Grease waxed paper.
Mix flour, soda, and salt together.
Beat eggs in a small mixer bowl at high speed, until thick and light - about 5 minutes.
Gradually add the sugar, and beat until thick.
Melt the chocolate and water together, and add to the egg mixture.
Fold in the dry ingredients, and mix gently but thoroughly.
Spread in prepared pan, and bake for 15 - 17 minutes, until the cake springs back when lightly touched.
Remove from oven and turn out immediately onto a tea towel that has been sprinkled generously with icing sugar.
Remove waxed paper, and trim of any crisp edges of the cake.
Begin at the narrow end, and roll up the cake and the tea towel together. Allow to cool.
Filling:
Whip cream until soft peaks form. Stir in icing sugar and vanilla and whip until stiff.
Unroll the cake when cool, and spread the top with the whip cream.
Re-roll, without the towel.
Cut a thin slice off of each end of the roll, to make them even.
Icing:
Soften butter. Combine all ingredients and beat until smooth and of good spreading consistency.
Use the centres of the ends you sliced off the cake to make "bumps on the log": Use a little of the icing to affix the bump to the side of the cake - one on each side.
Ice the entire cake with the icing, including the ends and the bumps.
Run a fork along the icing so that it resembles tree bark.
Sprinkle with icing sugar, and decorate with holly or other Christmas decoration leaves.
Store in refrigerator.

What is the best YULE LOG(buche de noel) recipe?
My french class is having a contest on who can make the best Yule log and theres even judges (teachers) . Its based on looks and taste. I need a really good recipe because I want to win!
Answer: I've been making this for years and it always turns out. For a less chocolatey cake use whipped cream instead of chocolate mousse.
Genoise (cake)
3 eggs
1 C sugar
⅓ C water
¾ C flour
¼ C cocoa powder
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp salt
1 recipe Fudgy Icing
1 recips Chocolate Mousse
1 recipe Basic Meringue
Preheat oven to 375°
Line a jelly-roll pan with wax paper, grease paper.
Beat eggs until thick and lemon colored. Beat in sugar, then water and vanilla. Sift together dry ingredients. Gradually beat into egg mixture. Mix until smooth.
Pour into prepared pan. Bake 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes then turn out onto tea towel sprinkled liberally with powdered sugar. Slowly roll up cake and towel. Let cool.
When cool, gently unroll cake. Spread Chocolate Mousse on cake and re-roll. Cover with Fudgy Icing. (I like to use a piping bag with a rose petal tip to make it look like bark, but a combination of short and long strokes with a butter knife or small spatula looks alright too)
To make decorative mushrooms, pipe Basic Meringue into an equal number of domed caps and mushroom stems. Bake according to recipe directions. Spread melted chocolate to underside of caps and use it to attach the stems. Store in an airtight container until ready to serve.
To serve cake, place “log” on serving dish. Arrange Meringue Mushrooms, artificial pine branches, nuts, cranberries, or pinecones. Sprinkle with powdered sugar to simulate snow.
Keep covered and refrigerated.
Basic Meringue
4 egg whites
½ tsp cream of tartar
1 C sugar
Preheat oven to 225°
Line baking sheets with parchment paper or paper grocery bags.
Beat egg whites with cream of tartar until foamy. Gradually beat in half of sugar. Beat until egg whites hold stiff peaks. Fold in remaining sugar.
Pipe mixture into desired shapes on prepared sheets. (you can use a zipper bag with a corner cut off) Lightly sift cocoa powder over the tops. Bake until dry, about 2 hours. Let cool before carefully removing from the paper.
Chocolate Mousse
4 oz semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, chopped
¼ cup butter
4 egg whites
⅛ tsp cream of tartar
½ cup heavy cream
Melt together chocolate and butter in a double boiler.
In a mixing bowl beat egg whites and cream of tartar almost to stiff peaks.
In another bowl beat heavy cream almost to stiff peaks.
Add ⅓ of egg whites to chocolate mixture, stir gently to combine. Fold remaining egg whites into whipped cream. Gently fold in chocolate mixture until no white streaks remain.
Chill at least 30 minutes before serving.
Yields: 3 cups mousse
Fudgy Icing
⅓ C cocoa powder
⅓ C butter or margarine, softened
2 C powdered sugar
1½ tsp vanilla
1 - 2 tbsp hot water
Mix cocoa powder into butter. Gradually beat in powdered sugar. It may not form a smooth mixture, but that’s okay.
Beat in vanilla and enough hot water to make icing spreadable. Beat until smooth.
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
