This was supposed to be a yule log. You know, the fluffy baked good with jam at its center. I don't know why it's green. I have no sweet clue why it's green. What have I done.

More green in person. Wait, should this be tagged NSFW?

Edit: yule not rule

Here's a better version of the same recipe

Was it yummy? If yummy, it's always a win in my books

That's the worst part. No, it tasted terrible. I've made many ugly but delicous things in my life but this is my first absolute failure.

I can joke all I want but I was legitimately angry and sad for like a day after this. I hate wasting food but it had to go.

I'm not seeing any green in the picture. I also don't know what a rule log is, so I have no idea what is supposed to have gone wrong with this one. Looks perfectly edible to me.
