Chocolate Salame

Chocolate Salame a delicious Italian Chocolate recipe, a fast and easy no bake sweet.  Snack or Dessert the perfect treat.

My daughter has been bugging me for so long to make Chocolate Salame. So when she got back from a visit with her friend’s family, she started again on “Ma you got to make this, I even have the recipe”!

My husband I have to say had never tasted it before and said he had never heard of it before either!  Which  needless to say was a complete surprise to me, as this tasty  No Bake Chocolate recipe is a must make for most Italians at either Christmas or Easter.

So after making it a couple of times and mixing up the recipe,  I came up with this winning combination.  And it was so good.  Creamy and chocolatey.

Made with dark chocolate, cocoa, icing sugar and tea biscuits, I did add eggs because I believe it tastes better with them.

All lot of  Italian recipes are with raw eggs, from Chocolate Salame to Tiramisu, although of course we tend to use pasteurized eggs more.

Chocolate Salame

After I made the Salame.  I rolled it up and refrigereated it for approximately 2 – 3 hours. I removed it from the fridge, rolled it in some icing sugar and then presented it to the Italian. I asked him if he would like to cut the Chocolate Salame?

After the first slice he exclaimed “It looks just like Salame and tastes amazing”!  Easy and no bake just what I like.  Enjoy!
