Salame del re, chocolate salami with cookies and almonds
An Italian no-bake dessert: butter, sugar, egg, cocoa, and coffee mixed with crushed dry biscuits and almonds soaked in milk, rolled into logs and chilled.
This “king’s sausage” resembles a salami: the pieces of biscuits and almonds create the fat, and the powdered sugar forms the “skin”.
