Step 1: You will need… .
* 6 large eggs, separated
* 140 g caster sugar
* 60 g cocoa powder
* 220 ml double cream
* 230 g plain chocolate
* 2 large eggs, separated
* 2 tbsp water
* icing sugar for dusting
* a knob of butter for greasing
* 2 baking trays relined with parchment paper
* 1 saucepan
* 1 spatula
* 1 whisk
* 1 wooden spoon
* 1 electric mixer
* cling film
* 3 large bowls
* 1 small bowl
Step 2: Preheat the oven
Set the oven to 180ºC (350ºF/ gas mark 4)
Step 3: Break the chocolate
To begin making the chocolate sauce, break the chocolate roughly into pieces into the metal bowl then add the water.
Step 4: Melt the chocolate
Place a saucepan onto a high heat, half filled with water and bring it to a simmer. Put the bowl of chocolate on top of the pan and allow it to melt, stirring occasionally which will take about 5 minutes. Once melted remove from the heat and mix into a smooth paste.
Step 5: Mix with egg yolks
Pour the two egg yolks into a separate large bowl and taking your whisk, beat them lightly. Spoon in the melted chocolate and stir well.
Step 6: Whip the egg whites
Tip the two egg whites into a large bowl and with your mixer on a high setting, whip into soft peaks.
Step 7: Add egg whites
Into the bowl of melted chocolate, spoon in the stiffened egg whites with your spatula and gently begin to fold in. This keeps the air in and creates a light, fluffy consistency.
Step 8: Seal and chill
Cover the bowl with cling film and seal tightly, then place in the fridge and chill for 1 hour.
Step 9: Grease the paper
Coat the paper on the baking tray with a layer of butter.
Step 10: Make the sponge
Add the six egg yolks into a large bowl and whisk briefly until they begin to slightly thicken. Add the caster sugar and whisk again for roughly 30 seconds. Finally add the cocoa powder and whisk well.
Step 11: Whip the egg whites
Take the egg whites from the six eggs and put them into a large bowl. With your mixer on a high setting, whip until they form soft peaks.
Step 12: Add egg whites
Add the stiffened egg whites to the chocolate mix and fold in with your spatula.
Step 13: Layer the chocolate mix
Pour the chocolate mix into the relined baking tray and smooth to the edges with your spatula.
Step 14: Bake
Place the tray into the centre of the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until it becomes spongy. Once baked allow to cool in the tray, for roughly 30-45 minutes.
Step 15: Dust the tray
Whilst the sponge is cooling, liberally dust the second relined baking tray with icing sugar. Then lay the cooled chocolate sponge onto the dusted tray, parchment paper side up and remove the paper.
Step 16: Whip the cream
Pour the cream into a bowl and with your electric mixer switched onto a high setting, whip the cream for roughly 3 minutes to form soft peaks.
Step 17: Spread the mix
Spread the chocolate mix evenly, all over the sponge, then spread over the whipped cream.
Step 18: Roll into a log
Carefully roll up the cake to make a log, rolling from the shortest side. Don't worry if it cracks, it just gives it a more rustic look.
Step 19: Dust and serve
Sprinkle some icing sugar over your Yule log and it's ready to serve!

How To Make A Crispy, Golden Roast Turkey Crispy, Golden Roast Turkey Recipe. This fool-proof method for roasting a turkey is guaranteed to result in a holiday bird that is moist, flavourful, and covered in a gorgeous brown skin. If you have guests that don't like turkey, this will change their minds. Sample our Crispy, Golden Roast Turkey recipe. Serves: 12 Preparation Time: 30 minutes Cooking Time: 3 hours Oven Temperature: 200 390° c - ° f 200
Step 1: You will need 1 fresh turkey, 5.5 kilos, washed and dried 1 ½ onions, chopped into quarters 2 carrots, peeled and chopped 2 garlic bulbs, cut in halves 1 lemon, cut into quarters A few celery tops some rosemary some thyme 40 ml olive oil 2 Tbsp rock salt salt and pepper 1 baking tray with rack some kitchen twine 1 cutting board 1 knife 1 thermometer 1 bowl
Step 2: Preheat the oven Set the temperature of the oven to 200°C (400ºF/ gas mark 6).
Step 3: Prepare the vegetables Add to a bowl the onions, garlic, carrots, lemon, rosemary, rock salt, thyme, celery tops, and a little olive oil. Mix them all together by hand and set aside. VIDEOJUG TIP Handle raw turkey with the same care that you would raw chicken. Wash the inside and out with water and lemon juice and dry with paper towels. Use a separate cutting board and utensils.
Step 4: Trim the turkey Place the knife deep inside the neck cavity and cut off the neck, trying to reserve as much of the skin as possible. Next, find the elbow joint of one of the wings, insert the knife, cut and remove. Repeat with the other wing.
Step 5: Fill the bird Place the vegetables into the main cavity of the turkey, stuffing it as much as possible. If there is enough skin remaining around the neck cavity to close it, stuff that area as well.
Step 6: Tie the bird Start with a 1 metre piece of string. Place it around the turkey's neck and wings. Cross the legs together .Wrap one side of the string around the legs and then wrap the other side. Pull them together and tie a knot.
Step 7: Prepare for oven Place the bird on the rack. Pour some olive oil over its skin and rub it in well, covering the entire surface. Season well with salt and pepper. Turn the bird onto its side and season again. Repeat until the whole bird is coated and leave it on the rack, breast-side down.
Step 8: Roast Allow for 10-15 minutes for each 450g of weight. After 30 minutes, lower the temperature to 180°C and cook for about 1.5 to 2 hours more.
Step 9: Check the turkey At this time, test your turkey with a meat thermometer. Place it into the thigh first and then into the breast. The temperature should exceed 85°C for the thigh and at least 76°C in the breast. Once these temperatures are reached, remove the turkey and turn it breast-side up so it will brown. Increase the oven to 220°C and let it cook for 10 minutes more. At this time, remove the turkey from the oven, cut the string, and let it rest for 20-30 minutes. Don't forget to save the drippings for the gravy from the oven tray!
