Gluten-free and lactose-free Christmas log – Recipe Schär

That's it ! The month of December begins tomorrow with its share of festivities and taste pleasures. To end the year 2018 under the sign of gluttony, I revisit the iconic Yule Log; in a gluten-free and lactose-free version with Schär . The opportunity to combine the delicious accords of cocoa with almonds. My personal touch:the white sesame-coconut purée that garnishes this generous yule log for 8 people. I wanted to work the sponge cake with Schär Mix B flour , which offers a soft texture... An original dessert that will find its place in your New Year's Eve menu ! Here is the recipe.
