Servings: 24 slices
Calories: 91kcal

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup finely chopped raisins (you can sub in dates but raisins make it moister)
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup black coffee
  • cup unsalted butter
  • 2 good quality chocolate bars 100 grams each
  • 150 grams plain biscuits (like Social Tea) Use gluten free biscuits to make this a gluten free cookie)
  • ¼ cup almonds roughly chopped
  • ½ cup icing sugar (reserve 2 Tbsps to sift over finished log)
  • pinch of sea salt

Instructions

  • Dissolve cocoa powder in coffee and steep raisins in coffee mix until ready to use.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Toast almonds pieces on a pie plate in one layer for approximately 13 minutes. Watch so they are toasty brown but not burnt.
  • Melt butter in microwave. Break the chocolate bars into bite size pieces. Add about ¼ of pieces to hot butter and stir until pieces are melted. Continue to add chocolate pieces. Microwave about 20 seconds at a time as needed until all the chocolate is added and melted. This should only take a couple of minutes. Be careful not to burn the chocolate in the microwave.
  • Place biscuits in a resealable bag and use a rolling pin to coarsely break them up. Don't get them too fine or they will make the end product too dry.
  • Mix the biscuits, raisins & coffee mixture, nuts and melted chocolate, icing sugar, sea salt all together in a bowl. Don't overwork just stir until evenly mixed.
  • On a piece of plastic wrap spoon the mixture into a long log about 12" long. Form the mixture into a sturdy log resembling the shape of a salami. Dust with reserved icing sugar. Seal up the plastic wrap and twirl the ends. Wrap with another piece of plastic.
  • Refrigerate overnight.
  • Slice and serve!
  • The log keeps well wrapped air tight for a couple of weeks in the refrigerator.
