Hello there my foodie friends,
Are you looking for a no-bake chocolate dessert? Here you go. This Greek Chocolate Cookie Log, also known as Mosaiko, is a simple yet indulgent no-bake dessert that’s loved across Greece. This chocolate log is one of those nostalgic desserts that instantly brings back memories for many Greeks, myself included. It’s a classic that has been passed down through generations. A quick treat for family gatherings, name days, or just a treat with your favorite cup of tea or coffee.
Mosaiko, known as “Kormos” in Greek, is a rich and fudgy chocolate log made with petit-beurre biscuits. If you have some chocolate or cocoa sitting around and need a quick, no-bake dessert, this recipe is a must-try! I tweaked mine by adding a splash, or shall I say more than a splash, of cognac for extra flavor. I’ve had this dessert on my mind for a while, and when I realized I only had a few tablespoons of cocoa left, I actually pulled out my measuring spoons and counted them. Don’t laugh. I’m sure you’ve done this too, right?
Do you guys do this? Or is it just me? Sometimes, all it takes is a light push like this almost-empty box of cocoa to motivate me and make something delicious like this! I was cleaning out my fridge and found some unsalted butter tucked in the back of the shelf. It also happened to be close to its expiration date. So, with two good reasons to use it up, I ended up making this dessert. 🙂
Lately, I’ve been spending more time in the kitchen. Cooking, baking have always been my comfort zone, especially when my life becomes difficult. So, I’ve been experimenting, creating, and stocking up on plenty of delicious recipes to share with you!
So, today, I am posting this nostalgic Greek Chocolate Cookie Log, and I hope you love it as much as we Greeks do!
Have a lovely morning/afternoon/evening and weekend, everyone!
