Ingredients

180 g tea biscuits
150 g marmalade candies jelly candy (not sour)
100 g butter
100 g condensed milk
2 tbsp cacao powder

The topping powder

2 tbsp powdered sugar
2 tbsp starch (corn, potato, rice, etc.)

Metric - US Customary

Instructions

Cut the tea biscuits into small pieces by hand (or mash them in a big plastic bag).
Then, cut the marmalade candies into small pieces and add to the cookie bowl.
Add the butter, condensed milk and chocolate powder to a saucepan and warm up at medium-low until the butter is melted. Keep turning to prevent burning the mixture.
Add the melted chocolate mixture to the biscuit mixture and mix.
Add half the mixture to a big piece of plastic wrap and start rolling with your hands to make a cylinder. Then, use a sushi mat or similar to make it rounder.
Make it with the other half again, then reserve it in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours.
Once cold and firm, take parchment paper and a scraper and push underneath the sausage to shape it perfectly round (Check video).
Take off the plastic and cover it with the topping powder mix twice.

Notes

Cover the sausages with the starch-sugar powder twice; the sugar will get absorbed in the first round.

Use a sharp knife to cut the sausage.
