Jens Chocolate Chip Biscuitcookie Log Recipes

JEN'S CHOCOLATE CHIP BISCUIT/COOKIE LOG

Steps:

• Have ready an oblong dish which will be your serving dish.
• Place sherry or liquid of choice in a shallow bowl.
• Beat the cream with the golden syrup and cocoa until firm and holds it shape.
• Dip quickly a biscuit into the liquid of choice (dont soak) and spread one side with the cream.
• Do a second biscuit and sandwich together.
• Stand these on the serving dish on their edge.
• Continue until all bisciuts are used and you have a 'log'.
• Spread remaining cream over the log to enclose the biscuits.
• Decorate as desired. I like to put a row of glace red cherries along the top then sprinkle with chocolate chips or shaved chocolate.
• Place in fridge for at least 2 hours if possible although can be eaten soon after making, it just wont be as soft.
• Note:.
• This can also be made using plain sweetened whipped cream.

BISCUIT LOG

Steps:

• Lie approximately 40cm aliminum foil on a flat surface (enough to fully cover the log you will make) Whip the cream until thick Place a thick strip of the thickened cream in the middle of the aliminum foil Dunk the edges of a biscuit in the liquor, cover both sides of the biscuit with the thickened cream Place the biscuit standing upright into one end of the cream strip Repeat with the next biscuit but only covering one side with cream Press the biscuit into the cream of the first biscuit so the cream covered side is facing out.
• Repeat this process until there are no biscuits left.
• You will have a biscuit, cream, biscuit sandwich effect With the remaining cream, cover the entire log in cream.
• Grate the chocolate and cover the entire log Now wrap the log in the aliminum foil and place into the freezer until ready to be used.
