Daring Bakers- French Yule Log

So, this is the only element that came out from December's Daring Bakers Challenge. This month's challenge is brought to us by the adventurous Hilda from Saffron and Blueberry and Marion from Il En Faut Peu Pour Etre Heureux. They have chosen a french yule log by Flore from Florilege Gourmand. I unfortunately don't have a pretty yule log to show all of you. My almond dacquoise biscuit turned out nicely, but my mousse element was a disaster. I should have known better than to wait till the last minute and bake when I am distracted, but that is what I did. The recipe seemed daunting with all of its steps, but as I read the recipe the individual steps didn't seem too bad. I may try it again when I am not so distracted because it does sound sooo delicious. Check out the other Daring Bakers and see what they have whipped up. You won't be disappointed.
