Italian Chocolate Salami is the perfect dessert when you've got some time on your hands, and you've got the chocolate urge mixed with the desire for a bit of creativity and gusto on your dessert plate.
A total Italian classic, this dolce remains a less-discovered chocolate dessert recipe on international tables. A great chocolate dessert for the holidays, it's not nearly as well known as its big sister, the Panettone cake served on Italian holiday tables from North to South.

Blending the simplicity of dry biscuits with other on-hand ingredients everyone likely already has in their pantry (like eggs and powdered cocoa), creating your very own authentic Italian Chocolate Salami is composed of a quick prep time in the kitchen, followed by resting time in the fridge - for the Chocolate Salami, not you!

One of the best and easiest desserts out there!

So easy to make, you don't even have to bake it and it lasts in the fridge for a few days. The kids love it too - and love that it looks like a real Italian salami!
