This Christmas, I decided to combine two of my older favorite recipes Xmas Swiss roll (buche de Noel) with mascarpone, and Chocolate cake with mascarpone & nutella filling
into one festive dessert: a soft chocolate sponge cake and a creamy mascarpone–Nutella frosting. The result is a rich but light Christmas log, rolled and shaped like a real branch, perfect for holiday tables and family gatherings.
This recipe is easier than it looks and can be prepared in advance, making it ideal for stress-free entertaining.
