What? You've never heard of or had chocolate sausage?
You're missing out!!!
I'm going to tell you right now that this is not a healthy-good-for-you dessert, but it is oh so good for your taste buds!! So I make it maybe once or twice a year.. balance haha!
Ok here is what you need..
This recipe does not have to be followed to a T,
so don't worry abut making sure it's measured exactly.
Add a little more, add a little less, and just have fun with it!
- 2 bars of chocolate, about 5.5 oz each, I prefer Aldi's chocolate
- 1 stick of butter (I'm not a kerrygold fanatic lol)
- 1/2 cup of chopped crackers, my favorite are animal and graham crackers, some have used kix cereal
- 1/2 cup of chopped nuts, I like walnuts
- 1/2-1 cup of mini marshmallows
Here is what you do:
- Melt the chocolate and butter together on low heat, mixing very often, scraping the bottom to prevent chocolate burn.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly, to where you can dip your finger and not burn yourself. If you don't cool it, the marshmallows will start to melt.
- Add the crackers, nuts, and marshmallows. Mix well.
- Lay out a long piece of plastic wrap and spoon out the chocolate mix.
- Using the plastic wrap, form the mixture into a log, then wrap the plastic wrap around itself.
- Place sausage seam side down and tuck the ends under, refrigerate for at least half an hour.
- Remove from plastic wrap, cut into thick slices, and serve!
Melt & Cool
I doubled the recipe for a party, that's why you're seeing more chocolate and butter.
Then split the mixture into two "sausages".

oh my goodness! This was the childhood treat that turned all those cardboard-like cookies from the soviet stores into pure yumminess! Will have to do this with my kiddoes.
