How to Make Chocolate Salami
- Soak 1 cup dried cherries in 1/2 cup warm water for 30 minutes.
- Drain the cherries thoroughly.
- Melt 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate and 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter in a double boiler or heat-safe bowl set over a pot of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup chopped almonds, 1/4 cup chopped pistachios, 1/2 cup crumbled biscotti, the drained cherries, 1 tablespoon finely chopped orange peel, and 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier.
- Mix until well combined.
- Whisk in 1 large egg yolk until fully incorporated.
- Allow the mixture to cool completely to room temperature.
- Line a sheet of wax paper or plastic wrap and spread the chocolate mixture evenly onto it. Roll it tightly into a salami shape using the wax paper or plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the salami to firm up.
- Once chilled, unwrap the salami and slice into 1/2-inch thick rounds. Serve and enjoy!
