The sweets that we ate in childhood very often remain the most beloved throughout our lives. For memory come nuts from condensed milk, a
cake " Ginger
" or puff pastries with cream, as well as
chocolate sausage from cookies. The last dessert was very popular in the Soviet era, because the ingredients used are very affordable products, which could be bought even in times of total shortage. And its preparation does not take much time, especially since the sweetness can be made for future use, and then stored in the freezer for a long time.
The cookie sausage recipe given in this article will remind you of your childhood and tell you in detail about how to cook your favorite sweet. Your children will definitely like it, albeit with a slightly spoiled abundance of pastries and ready-made confectionery products, which can now be bought in stores even in the smallest city. But self-made desserts cannot be replaced with anything. So, to please loved ones on weekdays or to diversify the festive table, take note of the recipe for sausages from cookies. By the way, on the main ingredient - shortbread cookies, you can save a little by buying the so-called "scrap" in the store - a crumbled or broken product. The remaining ingredients are also quite cheap.
Classic cookie sausage recipe
To cook this famous treat, you will need:
- half a kilogram of shortbread cookies;
- 200 grams of butter of good quality (pay attention to fat content - it should be above 74%);
- 1 tbsp. granulated sugar;
- 2 tbsp. l natural cocoa powder;
- half a glass of milk of normal fat content;
- walnuts (optional).
Cookies need to be broken into crumbs, or, faster, chopped with a mixer or in a blender. In a separate bowl, mix soft butter, cocoa, sugar and milk. Then put it all on a slow fire and heat until the mixture becomes homogeneous, but does not boil. Then pour it into the crumbs from the cookies and mix well until the consistency of plasticine. Almost done - just divide the mass into several parts, form the sausages that you want to wrap in cling film, parchment paper or foil, and place in the freezer for at least a few hours to set. Ready dessert can be stored for quite some time. And every time for tea you can get a portion of sausages, cut into round pieces and enjoy a treat familiar from childhood.
The cookie sausage recipe can also be slightly supplemented by adding nuts - walnuts or hazelnuts, as well as raisins, dried apricots, pieces of chocolate and so on to the finished, but not yet frozen mass. Of course, this will increase the energy value of the dish, which is already high in calories - about 350 kcal per 100 grams of product, but for a change you can try one or another option.
By the way, if you want to try something new, you can use a creamy sausage recipe from cookies. It is prepared in the same way as regular chocolate sausage, but without the addition of cocoa powder, and instead of milk they take a third glass of cream and half a can of ordinary condensed milk. One way or another, the delicacy turns out to be incredibly tasty and will help you create an excellent sweet table for the holiday or will please you and the children on weekdays.
