Serves:
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 1/2 cup chocolate ganache
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
- Fresh berries (for garnish)
- Mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
-
Sift in the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Gently fold the dry ingredients into the egg mixture until well combined.
-
Pour the batter onto the prepared baking sheet and spread it evenly with a spatula.
-
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cake is set and springy to the touch.
-
While the cake is still warm, gently roll it up tightly, starting from the short end, using the parchment paper to help guide the roll. Let it cool completely in the rolled position.
-
Once the cake is cooled, carefully unroll it and spread a layer of whipped cream over the entire surface.
-
Re-roll the cake, removing the parchment paper as you go. Place the rolled cake seam-side down on a serving platter.
-
Spread the chocolate ganache over the entire surface of the cake, using a spatula to create a bark-like texture.
-
Dust the Bûche de Noël with powdered sugar to resemble snow. Garnish with fresh berries and mint leaves.
-
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Slice and enjoy!
