    Someone mentioned what to do with the kahlua liquor. That is part of the simple syrup used to brush the Yule Log with after unrolling it and before adding the filling. The simple syrup recipe could be cut in half with more than enough to brush on. The same goes for the ganache recipe. cut it in half if you really want to make this.... Yuk!

    Hello! I enjoyed your holiday special at Disney. I really wish you would post the recipes the chefs used on the show. Especially the flexible yule log dough recipe with the fillings and the frosting. The eggnog creme brulee with the biscuit cups and the profiteroles with pictures of the way they were displayed on the show. The savory recipes would be great too. I would love the cioppino recipe. Please send to clifital@aol.com Buona Fortuna e Buone Feste! These are the kinds of recipes I would love to see more of with the secrets and photos of the presentation.

    On TV it was mentioned to use half flour half cornstarch which I did -1/3cup 1/3cup of each. Why is this recipe not written the way it is done on tv? (I hate that Roulade turned out great! However I cannot say the for the frosting. I must have had an off day. Needed to drain off so much moisture and then tried to correct with confectioners so not to waste 1.5c butter. Lastly, I fell dumb in asking this, but what was I supposed to do with the Kahlua syrup? The recipe did not say.

    This cake was delicious and time consuming. It is something I will make again, but not on Christmas Eve with a time schedule :- My kids had fun helping with each step....

    I reduced the flour to 1/4 corn starch, 3/4 flour and think next time I will take the suggestion of 1/2 and 1/2. Was just a bit leary of 1/2ing it right off the bat.

    Despite having too much ganach and kaluha syrup...this thing was fun as ever to make. I did wish I had used half cornstarch instead of all flour. The roulade had some cracks in it that were easily repaired with the expresso buttercream!

    My family decided to make this cake Christmas Eve day as a family project. Although there are a number of steps we had fun since none of the steps are very hard to do. The end result was fabulous looking and tasting. This will be a tradition for us from now on - next year we're going to make the meringue mushrooms!

    This cake was absolutely amazing!!! My family finished every last bite! A note to those who make it: the frosting, ganach, and kaluah syrup recipes each make double what is needed for one cake, so you should either make two cakes or half the recipes.

    PS. People should stop rating recipes that they have not even tried because it messes with the acuracy of ratings. If you are looking for a different recipe, try to find a forum to post about it or try this recipe first so you can actually comment about it.

    Is there anyone who has a recipe closer to the one the Disney baker uses in the special shown on Food Network recently? I know he says he uses half cornstarch and half flour to get the flexibility in the cake but I'd like to see if anyone else's perfected it and gotten it down on paper
