I made this cake last year for Christmas. Instead of retyping the recipe, In case a yule log is on your Christmas list, I got the original recipe
here. There are a lot of steps, but it really turned out to be easy to follow. The only changes I made...
I trimmed off both ends so you could see the 'log' and then I put one side at an angle to make it look more like a log with some character. I ran my knife over the buttercream to make it the typical wood texture, and I ended up with a lot of left over frosting, so next time I'd be more generous with my icing inside. The icing turns out to be more like a mousse, which is delicious! I also made some holly leaves and berries out of fondant and I bought a little sugar Santa from a nearby cake store.
