Chocolate salami is a decadent, no-bake dessert that's a feast for both the eyes and the palate. Despite its meaty name, this treat is entirely sweet and vegan, masterfully blending chocolate, cookies, and a variety of nuts into a roll that's sliced to reveal a salami-like appearance. The rich, velvety texture melds perfectly with the crunchy elements, making it the perfect confection to impress at dinner parties.

My neighbour got me 3 chocolade letters. So this was a perfect recipe to make! It came out perfectly. The chocolat was already very sweet from itself, so I didn't add any extra sugar at all. For the dutch people in this app; This salami really reminds me of arretjescake.

I omitted the cranberries and the pistachios and used oil instead of butter. I also used less sugar. Nevertheless, it came out amazing!

Tried it, a little bit too sweet for my taste even thought I added half the sugar, maybe it depends on the sweetness of chocolate. It was quite hard to cut in slices. We have a similar dish in Lithuania called „tinginys” which used sweetened condensed milk instead

So I'm Italian, and chocolate salami was a favourite of mine during my childhood. I remember making it with my mum, even though we never put pistachios and cranberries in it. Making this recipe felt like family, and it was lovely to share it with my fiance (he loves pistachios so he was over the moon for this variation). This will be a staple in our home for many many years to come. It was delicious, and we loved it incredibly. Thank you to the PUL team for making this

It was great! I swapped the nuts/ fruits with yellow raisins, walnuts and some sesame bars (all crushed) and it was amazing! Also cut a bit on the sugar and cocoa powder. In the end it turned out amazing!!

Mmm sounds amazing, Rebu, thank you!

Good recipe! I think it’s indeed better when using half of the sugar; we did and it was excellent. We roughly chopped the biscuits, but it wasn’t easy to roll it in a salami shape. Next time I will chop up the biscuits more.

Really nice, bit too dark for my liking. Would try with marshmallows too to make it more of a rocky road. So easy to make though!

This is almost the same as one of Lithuanian national desserts!! We call it “Tinginys” (Lazy boy) because of how easy it is to make due it it being a non-bake dessert. Love it!
I have to admit that we ate the entire thing in one sitting, just two people. Worth it!
Tried it yesterday. Turned out great. And yes I did cut the sugar in half. This morning I just dropped it in milk and warmed it up in microwave. Makes a really nice hot chocolate:)
Made them for a get together with friends and they LOVED IT!! Aaaaand made me promise to make it again and in bigger quantities 🤣 big hit with non-vegan friends too ♥️♥️♥️
Super easy to make
Tastes great 👍
These are absolutely amazing! Everyone loved them
Very yummy! I agree with other people that it is too much sugar. Perhaps if your dark chocolate is sugar free it would work, but with the cookies and the chocolate it felt too sweet. Maybe half or none at all. Still a delicious treat and a great gift for friends. Thanks PUL 🥰
This is awesome. I would do less sugar next time. However it is yummy. Made them as gifts for my students. I also used GF stem ginger biscuits and it's superb.
Easy and delicious! Gave some to my colleagues and it was gone in minutes!
Lovely one to fulfill my Sunday chocolate cravings! 🩷 Did half recipe only, for trying (and I because I fear I will not rest until I eat all of it). I didn't have digestive cookies so I used a mix of leftover belvita and gluten free crackers, and it came out great 😁
I liked it but it was almost too sweet for me. Half of granulated sugar would have been enough :)
Sadly mine turned out too dry and cracked when I cut it. Didnt affect the Taste though, delicius as always. Thank you!
Just purchased the annual subscription to your app!
In the USA, what can be substituted for the digestive cookies?
I don’t have access to a good cegan butter, it’s terrible here. Any swaps? Thanks!
