Ingredients

  • 200 g Mini marshmallows (cut into small pieces)
  • 30 g Powdered sugar (to dust the marshmallows and the finished sausage)
  • 150 g Breton biscuits (hand-crushed into coarse pieces)
  • 50 g Shelled pistachios (whole)
  • 50 g Hazelnuts (whole)
  • 50 g Pecans (roughly chopped)
  • 200 g Baking dark chocolate (70% cocoa) (cut into small pieces)
  • 100 g Unsalted butter (cut into cubes)
  • 30 ml Honey (2 tablespoons)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the marshmallows

    Cut the marshmallows into small pieces, then dust them with powdered sugar and mix well to prevent them from sticking together.

    Time: PT10M

  2. Crumble the biscuits and add the dried fruits

    In a bowl, hand‑crumble the Breton biscuits into coarse pieces. Add the whole pistachios, hazelnuts, roughly chopped pecans and the marshmallow pieces.

    Time: PT10M

  3. Melt the chocolate and butter

    Place the dark chocolate and butter, cut into cubes, in a microwave‑safe bowl. Melt in 30‑second intervals, stirring well each time until you obtain a smooth, homogeneous mixture.

    Time: PT5M

  4. Incorporate the honey

    Add the honey to the melted chocolate‑butter mixture and stir until fully incorporated.

    Time: PT2M

  5. Mix everything

    Pour the dry mixture (biscuits, dried fruits, marshmallows) into the bowl of melted chocolate and mix until each piece is fully coated.

    Time: PT3M

  6. Form the sausage

    Lay a large sheet of cling film on the work surface, pour half of the mixture in the centre, gather the edges and roll to form a log about 3‑4 cm in diameter. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

    Time: PT5M

  7. Cool

    Place the two wrapped logs in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours to firm up.

    Time: PT4H

  8. Unmold and decorate

    Carefully remove the cling film, place the sausages on a board and generously dust with powdered sugar to mimic the look of a real sausage.

    Time: PT5M
