Classic Italian Chocolate Salami Recipe
Report
Chocolate salami is one of the most popular no-bake Italian desserts, made with dark chocolate, cookies, eggs, butter and sugar.Every Italian family has its own recipe: we have chosen to make chocolate salami with eggs because the traditional recipe requires them but you can make it without, just substitute eggs with a little milk (read how to make chocolate salami without eggs).It can be enriched with pistachios or hazelnuts: toast them for a few minutes in a pan or in the oven, to make them even tastier.

Instructions
- Crumble the cookies coarsely. Use your hands to do this or place the cookies in a food bag and crush them using a rolling pin. DON'T use the blender, because the pieces must be quite large.
- Then melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler. When ready set aside.
- While the chocolate melts, make a cream with the soft butter: work it with a wooden spoon till it's creamy enough.
- Then add the sugar and the eggs. Mix well until you get a smooth homogeneous cream.
- Add the chocolate. In this step you can add the Rum, but really, it's optional; chocolate salami is great even without it. Mix until the mixture becomes perfectly homogeneous.
- Add the chocolate cream to the crushed cookies and mix.
- Place the mixture on a baking sheet and, using your hands, shape it into a log.
- Once you have given the right shape, roll it in the baking paper and close to form a large cylindrical candy.
- Roll it up in a sheet of aluminum. Place Chocolate Salami to cool in the fridge for at least 4 hours until firm.
- Once hardened, pull it out of the refrigerator, remove the aluminum and the baking paper and dust with icing sugar from all sides. Then remove any excess sugar with your hands.
- Serve Chocolate Salami cut into slices, just like a real salami.
