What better way to celebrate than with a yule log from Nigella? It’s my first attempt at such a cake, and I have to say I was very pleased with the result.

Yule Log

(excuse the horrible photo, but it was taken with my iPhone – rubbish!)

I decided to add some sparkle by scattering a few gold glittery leaves around the rather realistic-looking log. And damn it tasted good. That Nigella knows how to bake a thing or two. Everything I have ever made from her How To Be a Domestic Goddess book has come out amazing.
