Salame de Chocolate

Ingredients

Dark chocolate

200g, chopped

Unsalted butter

100g

Granulated sugar

100g

Eggs

2 large

Maria biscuits

200g, crushed

Chopped nuts (hazelnuts or walnuts)

100g

Port wine

50ml

Cocoa powder

for dusting

Instructions

1. Melt the chopped dark chocolate and unsalted butter together in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water, stirring until smooth and fully combined.
2. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the granulated sugar and eggs together until the mixture is light and fluffy.
3. Gradually pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, stirring constantly to ensure the eggs do not scramble and the mixture remains smooth.
4. Fold in the crushed Maria biscuits, chopped nuts, and Port wine into the chocolate mixture until well combined and evenly distributed.
5. Lay a piece of cling film on a flat surface and pour the chocolate mixture onto it. Shape the mixture into a log, using the cling film to help form a tight roll.
6. Wrap the log tightly in the cling film, twisting the ends to secure it. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm.
7. Once firm, unwrap the chocolate salami and slice it into rounds. For a finishing touch, dust the slices lightly with cocoa powder before serving.
