Chocolate salami is a much-loved dessert, which does not need baking. This recipe is quick and simple, and the result is absolutely delicious: it is hard to stop after just one slice. There are very few ingredients, which are easy to find: dry cookies, sugar, cocoa, eggs and Marsala. The only trick is to leave it to stand in the fridge or freezer, to shorten the waiting time. As a final touch, this recipe includes a sprinkling of powdered sugar to cover the dessert. To make it even more impressive, you can serve the chocolate salami tied with string on a wooden chopping board, just as you would a real salami.
