Christmas eats

I meant to put this up last week, but I got distracted doing something else.

I cooked a lot of sweets this year and took pics - I entered an online cooking competition. We'll see how I do! I'll spare you the long details and just show the money shots.

Yule log

The yule log was a flourless souffle jellyroll cake, filled with whipped cream, iced with dark chocolate ganache. It was just as good as it sounds. I am only slightly ashamed to tell you we ate that cake in two days.
