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 chocolate salami is a great make-ahead dessert. I made it a few days ahead of time and it was still delicious.

This chocolate salami is the perfect combination of sweet and salty. It's also really addictive! I could easily eat the whole thing in one sitting.
