Kosher, Dairy

Equipment

Ingredients

  • 9 oz (250 grams) cookies like Graham crackers/tea biscuits/animal crackers
  • 3/4 cup (180 ml) heavy cream
  • 2 Tablespoons (20 grams) granulated sugar
  • 1 stick (110 grams) butter
  • 7 oz (200 grams) dark chocolate, chopped or broken into pieces
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1-2 drops rum extract optional
  • 1 cup for coating shredded unsweetened coconut or powdered sugar optional

Instructions

  • Put the cookies in a double-sealed bag and crush with a rolling pin or a can. Don’t use a food processor; the pieces of the biscuits must be large. Transfer to a large bowl.
  • In a saucepan on low-medium heat, heat heavy cream and sugar while stirring until the sugar has dissolved (don’t bring it to a boil). Add butter and chocolate and cook while stirring until melted. Remove from heat. Stir in the vanilla and rum if using.
  • Pour the chocolate mixture over the broken cookies and mix well. Let it cool to room temperature.

To make the “salami”:

  • First, pour the mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper.
  • Roll the chocolate salami into a log (or two logs). Twist the ends closed, then place it in the freezer to set for 2-3 hours.
  • Once the salami has hardened in the freezer, remove the parchment paper. You can roll it in shredded coconut or powdered sugar if you like.
  • Serve cold in slices, and enjoy.
  • Store in the refrigerator.
