I mentioned at some point that my husband does not like birthday cake, so every time we celebrate a birthday in the family I try to make a dessert for my husband and so he will also be able to enjoy the celebration.
This time I made this delicious log or roll filled with Dulce de Leche and coconut, to the surprise of many, it is very easy to make and incredibly delicious.
It was so popular that the poor cake remained almost in one piece that day.
There is no way look bad with desserts like this and believe it or not take the picture was also difficult. No reason to stop enjoying a celebration when they do not particularly like any dessert because the main reason is to have fun as a family.
So I hope you enjoy this rare substitute for a birthday cake, surely delight the whole family.
