Dessert - Chocolate biscuit salami by Mariana F. - Recipia

Chocolate biscuit salami sets into a firm log, with pieces of Turkish delight tucked among the biscuits. Milk, butter and chocolate bind it together, while cocoa and rum essence give it its familiar flavor. I break the biscuits into different-sized pieces so the texture stays uneven. Prep: 20 minutes. Cook: 5 minutes. Rest: 4 hours. Total time: 4 hours and 25 minutes. Servings: 12. About 540 kcal and 6 g protein per serving.

Ingredients

700 g biscuits
200 g dark chocolate for baking
100 g Turkish delight
150 ml milk
200 g butter
1 teaspoon rum essence
100 g sugar
50 ml water
1 tablespoon cocoa
10 g powdered sugar

Preparation

1. Break the biscuits into pieces and cut the Turkish delight into small cubes. Put them in a large bowl. 2. In a saucepan, heat the milk, water, sugar, butter, broken-up chocolate and cocoa over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring until the chocolate melts and the sauce is smooth. 3. Take the pan off the heat and stir the rum essence into the sauce. Pour it over the biscuits and Turkish delight, then mix until they are evenly coated. 4. Place the mixture on plastic wrap, shape it into a log and wrap it tightly. Refrigerate for 4 hours, until firm. 5. Unwrap it, dust the log with powdered sugar and slice.

Notes

Wrapped well, it keeps in the fridge for up to 3 days and can be made a day ahead. The biscuits contain gluten, and the milk and butter are dairy; you can replace the dark chocolate with the same amount of milk chocolate, but the salami will be sweeter. Choose plain biscuits that aren’t too crumbly, and break them into different-sized pieces. If the mixture seems too soft, crumble a few more biscuits into it before rolling. I serve it with black tea.
