Chocolate Salami with Speculoos

The chocolate salami with speculoos is a classic dessert but slightly revisited: it originates from the recipe I usually make, but with some modifications and a special touch: speculoos that replaced the usual cookies. Speculoos are buttery, spicy, fragrant, in short, delicious. They give the chocolate salami a new and even more indulgent taste. Do you know speculoos? You can find them in well-stocked supermarkets or online. In some bars, they are served with coffee. If you have never tried them, you must. Enjoy them with coffee and then prepare the chocolate salami with speculoos.
