Today marks day 10, only 2 days to go! We are bringing you our chocolate log recipe, perfect for Christmas day or Boxing day after dinner! The log can be filled and decorated however you require but we have chosen an icing based middle!
Hope you enjoy!
you will need:
- 3 egg whites-
- 150g caster sugar-
- 120g plain flour-
- 15g cocoa powder-
1) Preheat your oven to 180 and place a baking sheet on a baking tray.
2) Measure your egg whites and sugar into a bowl and whisk until the mixture is thick and holds its shape for at least 5 seconds when dripped off of the whisk.
3) Sift and in your flour and cocoa, ensuring to fold them in slowly and gently, so as to not knock out any air bubbles in the mix.
4) Once finished, pour your mixture on to the lined baking tray and spread evenly. Make sure your mix has been spread into the corners of the tray so that the chocolate log cooks evenly.
5) Bake for 8 minutes and pre-roll tightly, keeping the baking paper on the sponge.
6) When still slightly warm, unroll, and liberally spread on your filling of choice on to the roll. Reroll and cover in icing or whipped soya cream!
Cut a slice off (the ends are the best bits!) and enjoy!
Happy Baking!
