A Decadent Dessert, Redecorated

There are so many Christmas tales to tell, but let me start with food.  I have already stated that I was making the chocolate espresso dacquoise for dessert.  But I decided that I would try to make it look like a Yule log.  Since the Township tree is the shagbark hickory, I thought I would use chocolate shards to decorate.  Here it is, both uncut and cut.  And yes, it was still delicious.
