After a good meal that lasts all day, our little stomach tells us STOP when it comes to dessert... except that this frozen log will slide down easily. Under a shiny chocolate-caramel salted butter glaze, there's a delicious chocolate ice cream, followed by spiced cookies and vanilla ice cream, it's a delight!

For the chocolate and vanilla ice creams
 200 Dark chocolate (or milk chocolate)
 6 Egg yolk
 130 Powdered sugar
 1 Madagascar vanilla powder
 20 Milk
 30 Liquid cream
 250 Speculoos cookies (for decoration)
For the shiny glaze
 2 Gelatin
 350 Chocolate caramel
 80 Liquid cream
 30 Salted butter
Directions
1

For this ice log, I use a silicone mold. Separate the egg whites from the yolks. Mix the yolks with the sugar and vanilla. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler and set aside. Heat the cream and pour it over the yolks, mixing everything well. Transfer to the saucepan and return to low heat. The cream should thicken a little (you are making a custard). When the cream is ready, divide it into 2 large bowls. In the first, add the chocolate and mix well. The second will remain vanilla-flavored.

When the chocolate and vanilla creams have cooled well, whip the liquid cream into a fairly firm whipped cream and divide it between the two preparations. In your mold, pour the chocolate cream. Reserve in the freezer for 35/40 minutes.

Crush the cookies and add them to the mold, pressing down slightly. Return to the freezer for at least 20/25 minutes. Then add the vanilla cream. Leave it in the freezer overnight.

The next day, soak the gelatin sheets in a large volume of cold water. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler. Off the heat, add the butter and mix. Bring the cream and glucose to a boil. Pour over the chocolate-butter mixture. Then add the drained gelatin. Mix until the gelatin is fully dissolved. The temperature should reach about 28°C. Take out the log and place it on a rack. Be careful, as this goes very quickly because of the very cold temperature of the log, the glaze sets very quickly. Pour the glaze along the entire length of the log.

5

To finish, place your small decorations before putting it back in the freezer. Take the log out 5 minutes before serving (and it melts fairly quickly!)
