The Description
A dense, chewy, and crunchy “salami-style” dessert. Because it contains no refined flour or sugar, it doesn’t cause the typical “sugar crash.” The texture is creamy yet firm, punctuated by the snap of whole nuts and the tang of dried berries. IngredientsCategoryIngredientsThe Base200g Cream Cheese (or Greek Yogurt for a lighter version)The Binder1/2 cup Coconut Flour or Ground Oats (to firm it up)Dried Fruit1/2 cup Dried Apricots, 1/2 cup Cranberries (sugar-free), 1/2 cup RaisinsNuts & Seeds1/2 cup Roasted Peanuts, 1/2 cup Pistachios, 1/4 cup Pumpkin SeedsFlavor1 tsp Vanilla Extract & 1/2 tsp Cinnamon instructions Prep the Fruit: Chop the larger dried fruits (like apricots) into bite-sized pieces so the log holds together better when sliced.
Mix the Base: In a large bowl, whisk your cream cheese (or thick yogurt) with the vanilla and cinnamon until smooth.
Combine: Fold in all the nuts, seeds, and dried fruits. Gradually add the coconut flour or ground oats until the mixture becomes a thick, moldable dough.
Roll: Place the mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap. Shape it into a cylinder (log).
Chill: Roll it up tightly, twisting the ends like a candy wrapper. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (overnight is best) to let the flavors marry and the texture firm up.
Serve: Slice into 1cm thick rounds with a sharp knife.
