Italian Chocolate Salami image

This recipe is handed down to me by my Italian mother. I grew up with this dessert. It's quick and easy. The chestnut puree may be hard to find. It's actually called 'Torta di Castagne' or Chestnut Cake. It just looks like a salami log. Great for a holiday meal. Great topped with whip cream.

This was a good recipe, but it was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using dark chocolate next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chocolate salami turned out really dry. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

This was a good recipe, but I made a few changes. I used dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate and I added some chopped dried cherries. It turned out great!

I thought this recipe was just okay. The chocolate salami was a bit too sweet for my taste and the texture was a bit too dense.
