Mosaiko, translating to “mosaic” in English, is named for its appearance.

This dessert features a beautiful mosaic-like pattern of biscuits and nuts embedded in a luscious chocolate mixture. The blend of textures and flavors makes every bite an adventure. Though not a conventional salami, its cylindrical shape and marbled look have earned it the nickname “psigeiou salami” or “refrigerator salami.”

Mosaiko is perfect for any occasion, from casual family gatherings to elegant dinner parties.

It’s an ideal make-ahead dessert, as it requires no baking and can be stored in the fridge for several days.

Its eye-catching appearance and delightful taste always impress guests, making it a conversation starter.

Ingredients

200 gr. chocolate couverture
1/2 cup milk
1 pack petit beurre biscuits
100 gr. butter
1 tbsp cognac

Chopped walnuts, optional

Directions

Chop the chocolate, add the milk, and melt them together over low heat.

Stir in the butter, cut into pieces, until fully combined.

Mix in the cognac at the end.

Crush the cookies into very small pieces using your fingers, and chopped walnuts if using, then add them to the mixture.

Mix thoroughly and allow the mixture to cool.

Shape the mixture into a salami-like form on a sheet of parchment paper.

Wrap it tightly and freeze for 4 hours.

Once chilled, slice the sweet salami and serve.
