Chocolate Log (Christmas Log)

Christmas night is here and to sweeten this night we are going to prepare a Chocolate Log or Christmas Log ;)

Ingredients:

For the cake:

- 75gr of Flour.

- 75gr of Sugar.

- 3 Eggs.

- 1 packet of Yeast.

- A pinch of salt.

For the filling:

- 500ml of Cream.

- 25gr of cocoa powder.

- 100gr of sugar.

For the Coverage:

- 350gr of Black chocolate.

- 25gr of Butter.

Elaboration:

Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. First we are going to start with the cake, separate the yolks from the whites, whip the egg whites with a pinch of salt  until is whip add the half sugar. Then mix the rest of the sugar with the egg yolks. Now mix the egg whites with the yolks carefully. Finally add the flour with the yeast & mix carefully, pour the mixture onto a flat tray with baking paper, extend well and put in the oven to 180 degrees about 10 minutes.

Once the cake is ready, cut off the edges a little and put the cake on a clean cloth, roll up and let it cool. Prepare the filling, for that whip the cream with the sugar and finally add cocoa powder carefully. When the cake is cold, we unroll it and add the filling, then roll it again. Once done, cut a part to bring it up as another small log.

Finally prepare coverage, Melt the chocolate and add the butter, then pour the chocolate over the log trying to cover everything and finally decorated making marks with a fork as if they were veins.
