Chocolate Salami

  • Total time: 6 Hours
  • Servings: 12 Slices

Ingredients

  • 10 Large Medjool Dates, pitted
  • 3 Tbsp Liquid Coconut Oil, not hot
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp Cocoa Powder
  • 1/2 Cup Mixed Raw Nuts (I used almonds, cashews and pistachios)
  • 1/8 tsp Salt
  • 2 Tbsp Unsweetened, Shredded Coconut

Directions

  • 1)

    Into a food processor, place dates, cocoa powder and melted coconut oil.

    Tip: Ensure the coconut oil is melted but not hot. This facilitates easier blending of the dates and allows them to absorb the oil without being greasy.

  • 2)

    Process for about 30 seconds, scrape down the sides of the processor, and continue processing for an additional 1 minute until it becomes very smooth.

  • 3)

    Transfer mixture into a medium bowl, add nuts and salt. Stir until evenly combined.

    Tip: Since almonds are much harder than the other nuts, I prefer giving them a rough chop before mixing. This ensures a more uniform distribution and makes slicing easier.

  • 4)

    Transfer the mixture onto a work surface and shape it into a thick log. Roll it in the unsweetened, shredded coconut. Wrap it in parchment paper or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to 2 days.

  • 5)

    Using a sharp knife, slice the chocolate salami into ¼ or ½ inch thick slices. Transfer into an air-tight container and store it in the fridge.

    Tip: For the best texture, enjoy it cold, directly from the fridge.
