Few desserts shout “Holidays” like a Yule log. It’s not only one of the oldest finales to a Christmas feast, but also a dessert with a huge “wow” factor: a moist, tender cake rolled around a rich, creamy filling; coated in frosting; and adorned with playful woodsy garnishes. In this course you will learn to make the ultimate show-stopping dessert—our Caramel-Espresso Yule Log with Meringue Bracket-Style Mushrooms and Chocolate Crumbles. We will show you how to bake and fill a chiffon cake, make a caramel-espresso filling, and create a chocolate ganache “bark.” You will also learn to make Yule log “dirt” crumbles and bracket-style meringue mushrooms.
