Ingredients
- Bisqvichi candies200 g
- Shortbread biscuits300 g
- Mascarpone250 g
- Cream 33%200 ml
- Dark chocolate100 g
- Cocoa powder2 tbsp
- Icing sugar3 tbsp + for “snow”
- Milk150 ml
Method
- Whip the mascarpone with 100 ml of cold cream, cocoa and icing sugar into a thick cream.
- Cover the table with cling film. Quickly dip each biscuit in milk and lay them in three rows in a rectangle, spreading cream between them.
- Dice half of the Bisqvichi candies and place them along the middle.
- Using the film, roll everything into a tight log and chill for 3 hours.
- Heat the remaining 100 ml of cream and melt the chocolate in it to make a glaze.
- Cover the log with the glaze and draw lines with a fork like tree bark. Cut one end at an angle and attach it to the side as a “knot”.
- Decorate with halved Bisqvichi candies, dust with icing sugar like snow and chill for another hour.
TipFor a festive look, decorate with rosemary sprigs — they look like fir branches — and cranberries.
