Instructions

  1. Coarsely crumble the biscuits in a plastic bag using a rolling pin, or pulse a few times in a food processor.
  2. In a saucepan, gently melt the butter with the sugar, cocoa, milk and salt until you have a smooth mixture.
  3. Off the heat, stir in the biscuit crumbs and chopped hazelnuts to coat them well.
  4. Leave to cool for 5 minutes, then spread the mixture onto cling film and shape it into a log about 5 cm in diameter.
  5. Wrap tightly in the cling film, roll once to firm it up, and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
  6. When ready to serve, roll it in icing sugar, slice into thick rounds and enjoy chilled.

Variations and tips

White chocolate version. Replace the cocoa with 50 g of melted white chocolate, and roll the log in crushed hazelnuts.
