Directions
Yule Log (Buche De Noel) Mccall’s Cooking School, I cut this recipe out of the December 1973 (the month my DS was born) issue of McCall’s magazine If you’re a chocolate lover and love to impress people with your artistry, this is the recipe for you! A lot of directions but don’t be intimidated, it’s actually quite easy And my kids LOVE it! (Cooking time does not include chilling times ) EDITED TO ADD: After seeing all these lovely photos, I feel like my more simple version looks under dressed I sprinkle powdered sugar over the un-iced log and serve whipped cream on the side of each slice , Can you make this ahead of time?
