A chocolate sausage recipe made from cocoa cookies, condensed milk and walnuts is a simple, no-bake dessert that is easy to make from the available foods. For me, chocolate sausage is the taste of childhood. Mom used to cook it for the summer holidays, so that the sausage froze well for Sunday breakfast, the cookies were soaked with butter and condensed milk. This is a dessert for the lazy - no need to mess around with dough and baking and whip the cream. You just need to wrap the chopped and mixed products in the film, put in the fridge and wait for a while.
By the way, I don’t propose to the younger generation, but I think the idea will work for older comrades - add a couple of tablespoons of brandy or strong liqueur to the sausage, it will be very tasty!

A way to cook dessert without baking “Chocolate sausage”
We peel the shelled walnuts, remove unnecessary inclusions - shell pieces, partitions. Then we wash the nuts with running water, dry them in a colander and put them in a pre-heated pan. Fry the nuts for a few minutes, you can also brown them in a strongly heated oven.
Chop the nuts with a knife or knead with a rolling pin, shift to a deep salad bowl. In addition to walnuts, you can add cashews, almonds, and for the budget option - roasted peanuts.
We knead half of the shortbread biscuits to obtain fine crumbs, break the rest of the biscuits coarsely. Small crumbs are the basis of the sausage, and the pieces of cookies will make the texture more diverse. Mix cookies with nuts.
Grind dried orange peels in a coffee grinder, add orange powder to the crumbs and nuts.
Next, pour cocoa powder. 50 g of cocoa is 3 tablespoons of cocoa and a little more. Accuracy in this case is inappropriate, can be poured by eye.
At this stage, mix the dry ingredients thoroughly.
Mix dry ingredients for chocolate sausage with softened butter. To make the dessert tasty and tender, take butter, the fat content of which is not lower than 80%.
Thoroughly mix the oil with dry ingredients, you can stir with a spoon or wear thin rubber gloves and prepare the mixture with your hands.
Add to the mixture a jar of condensed milk and a teaspoon of ground cinnamon for flavor, mix the products well again.
We spread the mixture on cling film smeared with a thin layer of olive oil. The film is folded in several layers so that it does not accidentally break.
Wrap chocolate sausage in a film, on the one hand we knot the film. Then we give the sausage a cylinder shape, tie the knot on the other side.
We remove the dessert in the fridge for 24 hours. Then remove the film, wrap in waxed parchment or sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Serving for tea. Enjoy your meal!
