Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly spray a 10x15 inch jellyroll pan and line with parchment paper. Sift flour with baking powder and salt and set aside.
  2. 2 In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs on high for several minutes until they are very pale and fluffy. Gradually add in the sugar, beating 1 to 2 minutes more or until very thick. Gently, but thoroughly, fold in the flour mixture.
  3. 3 Melt the chocolate in a small saucepan over low heat. In a small bowl, combine the 2 tablespoons of water with the 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar and the baking soda, then gradually stir into the melted chocolate until smooth. Quickly, but thoroughly, fold chocolate mixture into batter.
  4. 4 Pour batter into prepared 10x15 inch pan. Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean. Lightly sift an even layer of confectioners sugar over a cloth napkin or tea towel (do not use Terry-cloth). Flip the cake out of its pan onto the prepared cloth as soon as it comes from the oven. Carefully peel away parchment paper. Lightly dust top of cake with confectioners sugar, then trim away crisp edges. Starting with one of the short sides of the cake, immediately roll the cake up in the cloth, jellyroll style, and cool thoroughly on a rack.
  5. 5 For the Filling and Frosting: In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate. Remove from heat and let cool to lukewarm. In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese with the confectioners sugar until smooth, then blend in the vanilla extract and coffee liqueur. Blend in the melted chocolate. Unroll the cake and spread about 1/3 of the filling evenly over the surface. Roll the cake back up.
  6. 6 Arrange cake roll on serving tray, then frost generously, swiping with an icing spatula to form the long 'bark line' design. Swipe ends of cake in a circular motion to simulate the tree-rings of a cut log. Decorate log as desired with holly leaves and berries, mushrooms and snow.

Instructions

  1. 1 Whip 1 ⅔ cups confectioners' sugar, ½ cup butter, coffee-flavored liqueur, 1 ½ tablespoons cocoa powder, and 1 pinch salt together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment on high speed.
  2. 2 Transfer filling to a separate bowl; stir in mascarpone cheese until combined. Set aside. Clean and dry the stand mixer bowl.
  3. 3 Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  4. 4 Brush a 13x18-inch rimmed baking sheet with a little melted butter. Line the baking sheet with parchment paper; brush parchment with remaining melted butter.
  5. 5 Whisk ½ cup cocoa powder, flour, and ½ teaspoon kosher salt together in a bowl, making sure to break up any clumps.
  6. 6 Place eggs in the clean stand mixer bowl fitted with the whisk attachment. Add sugar; whip until fluffy, thick, and very light in color, 2 to 3 minutes.
  7. 7 Add vanilla extract and ½ cocoa powder mixture; mix on low speed for a few seconds.
  8. 8 Add remaining ½ cocoa mixture; mix on low for a few seconds. Switch to high speed; mix until the mixture is moistened but not fully blended.
  9. 9 Pull off the whisk attachment and use it to whisk the batter by hand until evenly blended.
  10. 10 Pour batter onto the prepared baking sheet; spread out with a spatula, almost to the edges, but not quite. Tap the baking sheet on the counter several times to remove any large air bubbles.
  11. 11 Bake in the preheated oven until the top is dry and the edges start to pull away from the sides, 8 to 10 minutes.
  12. 12 Meanwhile, sift some confectioners' sugar onto a clean kitchen towel to cover an area slightly larger than the sponge cake.
  13. 13 Remove cake from the oven. Run a knife around edges of the baking sheet. Dust some confectioners' sugar over top of cake. Run a spatula under the parchment paper to make sure it's not stuck to the baking sheet.
  14. 14 Quickly flip the baking sheet on top of the sugared area on the towel to invert the cake.
  15. 15 Carefully remove the parchment paper, then sift more confectioners' sugar over cake.
  16. 16 Gently roll cake up inside the towel; set aside to cool for 15 minutes.
  17. 17 Carefully unroll the cooled cake. Dollop as much buttercream filling as you like on top, reserving some for later; spread to the edges.
  18. 18 Roll cake up over the filling, using the towel to lift it if needed.
  19. 19 Sprinkle more confectioners' sugar over top of log; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
  20. 20 Pour hot cream over chocolate chips in a bowl; set aside for 1 minute, then whisk until chocolate is melted.
  21. 21 Cut log at an angle 3 inches from one end of log. Place log on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  22. 22 Spread some filling on the angled slice; attach it to one side of the log.
  23. 23 Spread a layer of ganache all over cake, except for the swirls on the ends. Refrigerate until ganache firms up, 15 minutes.
  24. 24 Carve lines into ganache to create the appearance of tree bark using the tip of a knife. Refrigerate until completely chilled.
  25. 25 Dust with cocoa powder and confectioners' sugar before serving.

  1. 1 Whisk eggs, sugar, coffee-flavored liqueur, instant coffee, and 1 teaspoon cocoa powder together in a metal bowl.
  2. 2 Place bowl over low heat on the stove (holding bowl with a dishtowel) and continue whisking until mixture thickens, 4 to 6 minutes. Whisk continually to prevent eggs from scrambling. Remove bowl from heat and let mixture cool completely. (You can set the bowl on ice water to speed this up.)
  3. 3 Whisk ice-cold heavy cream and sugar together in a chilled bowl until stiff peaks form, 3 to 4 minutes. Add cooled egg-coffee mixture to the whipped cream. Stir with a spatula until just combined.
  4. 4 Transfer mixture to serving cups. Wrap cups in plastic wrap and freeze until firm, 8 hours or overnight. Garnish with whipped cream and a dusting of cocoa powder.
