  • First, we start with the cake; beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form, gradually add the sugar, and continue beating until it resembles meringue.
  • Separately, beat the egg yolks and mix them with the egg whites, alternating with the flour.
  • Grease and flour a long and wide baking dish and pour this mixture into it.
  • Bake in a preheated oven at 200 degrees Celsius for 10 minutes.
  • Unmold onto a damp cloth and roll it up with the napkin until cool while preparing the filling cream.
  • Make a syrup with water and sugar.
  • Let the syrup boil for about 5 minutes.
  • In another bowl, beat the yolks until creamy and add them to the warm syrup.
  • Let it cool and mix with the previously beaten butter in the mixer.
  • Remove one-third of this cream and place it in the freezer for a while.
  • Add the melted chocolate to the remaining cream, and it is ready to be added to the cake.
  • Unroll the cake, soak it in the chosen liquor, then fill it with the chocolate cream and roll it up again.
  • With the reserved white cream, you can make Christmas figures and place them on the log.
