Yule Log, Chocolate - Atkins Recipe




Ingredients:


CAKE

1 cup granular sugar substitute
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tbsp atkins bake mix
9 large egg, separated
1/4 tsp salt

FILLING

1 cup heavy cream, (1/2 pint)
2 packet sugar substitute

FROSTING

2 oz unsweetened chocolate, melted, cooled
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 stick butter, unsalted, softened (8 tbs)
8 packet sugar substitute
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

We've remade this classic Christmas dessert the Atkins way.

1. Grease a jellyroll pan; line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch border,
grease again. Set aside. Heat oven to 375°F. Sift sugar substitute, cocoa
powder and bake mix.

2. In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on high speed, beat egg yolks
until pale yellow and fluffy. Beat in cocoa mixture on low just until
blended.

3. Beat egg whites with salt until stiff peaks form. Fold 1/3 of the whites
into yolk mixture to lighten it, then fold in the rest. Spread batter
evenly in prepared pan. Bake 12-15 minutes, until cake springs back when
lightly touched. Cool cake in pan on wire rack.

4. While cake is cooling, whip cream and sugar substitute until medium
peaks form. (Do not overbeat.) When cake is cool, slide cake from pan with
parchment underneath. Place on counter top.

5. Spread filling over cake, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Roll up cake from
narrow end, using parchment to help. Cut 1-inch diagonal pieces from each
end. Transfer roll to a serving platter; place cut diagonal pieces on
either side to form log 'stumps'. Slip pieces of waxed paper underneath
roll.

6. For frosting: in a large mixing bowl gradually whisk cream into melted
chocolate. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat in butter, sugar
substitute, cocoa powder and extract. Beat until smooth and fluffy. Spread
frosting over log. Run fork tines through frosting to make a bark-like
texture.
