Since childhood, many have been familiar with the taste of such a wonderful dish as chocolate sausage. At one time, she was the most popular and favorite treat. It is a pity that now, thanks to a large assortment of confectionery products on store shelves, its popularity has fallen dramatically. However, for many true connoisseurs of sweet tooth, this dish will always be the most beloved and most delicious.
Making chocolate sausage with condensed milk is quite simple. This process does not require a large number of ingredients. For a portion weighing half a kilogram you need:
Condensed milk - 120 g
Walnuts - 50 g
Shortbread Cookies - 200 g
Butter - 100 g
Powdered sugar - 2 tbsp. l
Cocoa powder - 4 tbsp. l
In order for chocolate sausage to resemble a meat product of the same name, you must correctly crush the cookies. Slices of various shapes should be obtained, but their size should not exceed 0.5 cm. All crumbs resulting from grinding should also be left. In exactly the same way, we also chop walnuts, which we add to the liver.
Now you need to soften the butter. To do this, just get it out of the refrigerator in advance and put it in a warm place. We also add it to the resulting mixture.
To make chocolate sausage exactly the same as in childhood, you need to add cocoa to it. At the same time, it must first be sieved through a sieve in order to exclude the formation of lumps.
Recipes are often advised to add milk and sugar after this, but we will take a chance and use condensed milk. It must be added in small portions with constant stirring. In order for the chocolate sausage to turn out well, you should constantly monitor the consistency of the resulting mass when adding condensed milk . It should be fairly dense and uniform, a little thicker than sour cream. But not so thick that cracks appear on it during formation.
Next, you need to divide the resulting mixture into equal portions and put on a plastic wrap. After that, you need to wrap the polyethylene and give it a shape so that the future chocolate sausage has an appropriate appearance. Then, together with the film, put it in the refrigerator for several hours.
After the right time, the sausage must be removed and trimmed again. Then you can remove the film and sprinkle the finished dish with powdered sugar. It will not only give an additional taste to the product, but will also look like a shell when cut. At the same time, cookies and nuts will look like pieces of bacon.
Such sweets must always be stored in a cool place or refrigerator. At the same time, the cling film can be removed from it, and powdered sugar will not allow sausages to stick to the plate or to each other. Serve it best in sliced form, because this is how the beauty and peculiarity of cooking will reveal.
So, it becomes clear that making chocolate sausage is quite simple and relatively inexpensive. Such a dish will look very beautiful on a plate, and its taste will remind you of your childhood and pleasant moments associated with this delicacy.
