Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Break the chocolate into pieces and add to a heatproof bowl with the butter. Place the bowl over a pan with boiling water on a low heat. Keep stirring until melted. Remove from the heat and whisk in the egg yolks. Add all the remaining ingredients and refrigerate until it’s firm enough to shape and not fall apart. This should take about an hour.

* Step 2

Place half of the mixture on a piece of greaseproof paper or clingfilm and roll into a ‘salami’. Repeat with the other half of the mixture to make a second salami. Tie the ends with string and refrigerate overnight. To serve, roll in icing sugar then slice into discs.

* Step 3

Notes: Waxed fruit If the fruit is waxed, either pour over hot water and rub the wax off with a paper towel or rub the fruit with half a lemon dipped in baking soda then rinse thoroughly.
