Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Chocolate Salami
  1. Gather all of your ingredients for the Chocolate Salami, ensuring the unsalted butter is softened to room temperature.
  2. Using a blender or food processor, coarsely chop the biscuit cookies until they resemble small crumbs with some larger chunks.
  3. In the bowl with the chopped cookies, sprinkle in the cacao powder, gently blending the two together with a spatula.
  4. Add the softened butter, dulce de leche, and condensed milk into the dry ingredients. Stir thoroughly until well blended.
  5. Break the pecans into smaller pieces and fold them into the chocolate mixture until evenly distributed.
  6. Lay out a sheet of plastic wrap on your countertop. Scoop the mixture and shape it into a log with your hands.
  7. Place the wrapped Chocolate Salami in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours, or freeze for about 1.5 hours.
  8. Once chilled, dust the Chocolate Salami lightly with powdered sugar and slice into rounds.
