1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
½ cup Raisins
7 ounces Semisweet chocolate
3 tablespoons Butter
6 tablespoons Sugar
3 ounces Blanched almonds, finely
Chopped
2 Egg yolks
7 ounces Petit beurre-type bisuits
<sweet plain>, crushed
3 tablespoons Mixed candided orange peel
And citron

Directions

This is another recipe for chocolate salami. The recipe suggests serving it with whipped cream as a decoration.

Soak the raisins in warm water to cover until needed. Break up the chocolate and place in a saucepan or heatproof bowl with the butter.

Place this over another saucepan of gently simmering water until melted (it must not touch the water). Add the sugar, almonds, biscuit crumbs, drained raisins, and candied peel and mix well. Remove from heat. Stir in the egg yolks and let mixture cool completely.

Form mixture into a salami shape with your hands and place it on a sheet of waxed paper. Seal the paper around it and refrigerate it for several hours. At serving time, remove the waxed paper, slice the salami and arrange the slices on a plate.

NB: For good presentation, don't slice it all. Cut about a third into slices and serve on a long serving dish with the salami and some slices already cut on the plate. Better yet, serve it on a cutting board to fool the guests!
