Steps:
- Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Butter and line a 23 x 32cm Swiss roll tin with baking parchment. Beat the eggs and golden caster sugar together with an electric whisk for about 8 mins until thick and creamy.
- Mix the flour, cocoa powder and baking powder together, then sift onto the egg mixture. Fold in very carefully, then pour into the tin. Tip the tin from side to side to spread the mixture into the corners. Bake for 10 mins.
- Lay a sheet of baking parchment on a work surface. When the cake is ready, tip it onto the parchment, peel off the lining paper, then roll the cake up from its longest edge with the paper inside. Leave to cool.
- To make the icing, melt the butter and dark chocolate together in a bowl over a pan of hot water. Take from the heat and stir in the golden syrup and 5 tbsp double cream. Beat in the icing sugar until smooth.
- Whisk the remaining double cream until it holds its shape. Unravel the cake, spread the cream over the top, scatter over the crushed extra strong mints, if using, then carefully roll up again into a log.
- Cut a thick diagonal slice from one end of the log. Lift the log on to a plate, then arrange the slice on the side with the diagonal cut against the cake to make a branch. Spread the icing over the log and branch (don't cover the ends), then use a fork to mark the icing to give the effect of tree bark. Scatter with unsifted icing sugar to resemble snow, and decorate with holly.

CHOCOLATE YUMMY
Adapted from a recipe in _Real Cajun_ by Donald Link. The original Chocolate Yummy is a dessert in the mold of banana pudding with 'Nilla wafers, or Jell-O salad with canned fruit. Here, the store-bought cookies are replaced with home-made, as is the pudding mix and the Cool Whip. "Cooking" time includes refrigeration time.

Steps:
- In a food processor, pulse pecans and sugar for 30 seconds.
- In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream together butter, vanilla and pecan sugar. Add flour and salt and mix just until it comes together. Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 325°F.
- Press the dough out to cover the bottom of a 9" square baking dish. Prick the dough all over with a fork or a docking roller, then bake 10-15 minutes, until golden. Allow to cool completely.
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the cream over medium heat. In a bowl, beat together sugar and egg yolks. When cream is hot but not boiling, add the cream to the egg yolks, stirring vigorously, a tablespoon at a time, until half the cream has been added. Return this mixture to the cream remaining in the pan, still stirring vigorously. Cook over medium-low, stirring constantly, until it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 5-7 minutes.
- Place the chocolates, butter and vanilla in a bowl. Pour the cream over them and stir until the chocolate and butter are melted and incorporated. Pour the custard into a shallow dish and place a piece of plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until cool.
- Beat the cream cheese with 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar until smooth.
- Whip the heavy cream to soft peaks. Add the remaining confectioners' sugar and whip to stiff peaks.
- Spread the sweetened cream cheese over the cookie base. Top with the custard, then with the whipped cream. Garnish with grated chocolate. Refrigerate at least one hour, or overnight, before serving.
