The holidays are upon us, and it’s time to start thinking about all the delicious treats we’ll be making. If you’re looking for a show-stopping dessert that’s both easy to make and sure to impress, look no further than this no-roll Bûche de Noël.

Traditionally, a Bûche de Noël is a rolled cake that’s decorated to look like a yule log. But with this no-roll version, you can skip the hassle of rolling the cake and still achieve that beautiful log shape. Instead, we’ll be stacking layers of cake and frosting to create a towering masterpiece.

To make this no-roll Bûche de Noël, start by baking a chocolate or vanilla sponge cake. Once the cake is cooled, cut it into thin layers using a long serrated knife. Then, stack the layers on top of each other, spreading a thin layer of frosting between each one. You can use a simple chocolate or vanilla frosting, or get creative with flavors like peppermint or raspberry.

To give your Bûche de Noël that classic log look, use a fork or toothpick to create lines on the sides of the cake. You can also add some decorations like chocolate shavings, powdered sugar, or edible glitter. Top it off with a few holiday-themed sprinkles or a dusting of cocoa powder, and your dessert is ready to serve.

This no-roll Bûche de Noël is not only visually stunning, but it’s also delicious. The combination of moist cake and creamy frosting is sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. And best of all, it’s a lot easier to make than a traditional rolled cake, so even beginner bakers can achieve Christmas glory.

So this holiday season, stack your way to dessert success with this no-roll Bûche de Noël. It’s the perfect centerpiece for your Christmas table or a great gift for someone special. Get ready to impress your family and friends with this beautiful and delicious treat!
