AMARETTO ALMOND CAKE
This was a cake I came up with in my bakery. At Christmas time we made this cake in sheet pans and torted it and carved it into a yule log. We then frosted it with amaretto mousse with ground almonds in it. It looks just like a birch log. They got decorated with pine boughs and meringue mushrooms. We did the chocolate yule logs...
