Fold in Add-ins: Gently fold in the chopped nuts and shredded coconut, and chocolate chips if using. The mixture should be thick and slightly sticky.
Step 2: Shape the Salami
Form the Log: Lay a piece of plastic wrap on a clean surface. Transfer the mixture onto the plastic wrap and shape it into a log (about 8-10 inches long).
Wrap it Up: Tightly wrap the log in the plastic wrap, twisting the ends to secure it.
Step 3: Chill the Salami
Refrigerate: Place the wrapped log in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm. For best results, chill overnight.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
Unwrap and Slice: Once firm, remove the chocolate salami from the plastic wrap.
Dust with Powdered Sweetener: Dust the outside with powdered erythritol for a snowy effect, if desired.
Slice and Serve: Use a sharp knife to slice the salami into rounds. Serve it as a dessert or snack, and enjoy the rich chocolatey flavor!
Tips and Variations:
Nut-Free Option: Substitute almond flour with sunflower seed flour for a nut-free version.
Flavor Variations: Add a splash of espresso or a few drops of peppermint extract for a different flavor profile.
Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. It can also be frozen for longer storage.
Final Thoughts:
