Introduction: Portuguese Chocolate Salami
I grew up on this stuff. a no bake easy to make desert. There are probably as many variations as there are cooks, this is just another one, here I am experimenting with Hazelnut chocolate and a little bit of vanilla.
Step 1: Ingredients...
4 oz Melted Butter
4 oz Unsweetened Cocoa
4 oz Powdered chocolate of your choice ( this time I am experimenting with Hazelnut chocolate)
4 Egg Yolks
Vanilla Extract/flavor
One Package (7 oz) of "Maria Cookies"
Other Stuff:
Large bowl
Whisk
Large wood spoon (not in the picture)
Step 2: Whisk Butter And...
Whisk Butter and Sugar (I like to use brown sugar, white sugar can be used if preferred)
Whisk till you have a creamy mixture.
Add yolks one at a time, mixing well between.
Add chocolate powder, cocoa, port wine and vanilla
Mix well till all chocolate is moist.
Step 3: Crush Cookies...
Crush cookies and mix well in.
Put on foil, shape like a salami, wrap and refrigerate a few hours or overnight for the flavors to meld. Cut slices about 1/2" thick and enjoy.
P.S. try bringing up to room temperature before eating.
Enjoy!!
