In a large bowl, crush the tea biscuits into small, bite-sized pieces.
Roughly chop the walnuts and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium-low heat.
To the melted butter, add the heavy cream, sweetened condensed milk, cocoa powder, a pinch of salt, vanilla extract, and the semi-sweet chocolate pieces.
Stir the mixture continuously until everything is melted and the sauce is smooth and glossy.
Add the chopped walnuts to the bowl with the crushed biscuits.
Pour the warm chocolate mixture over the biscuits and walnuts.
Using a spatula, fold everything together until the biscuits and walnuts are evenly coated.
Lay out two large pieces of plastic wrap. Divide the mixture evenly between them.
Shape each portion into a tight log, using the plastic wrap to help you roll it.
Wrap the logs tightly in the plastic wrap and twist the ends to seal, resembling a salami.
Place the logs in the refrigerator to chill for at least 2-3 hours, or until completely firm.
Once firm, unwrap the logs and dust generously with powdered sugar.
Slice into rounds and serve.
Wrap cooled log tightly in plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate up to 5 days, or freeze up to 2 weeks; slice while cold.

Yes, wrap the cooled log tightly and refrigerate for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 2 weeks. Slice while still cold for clean edges.
Digestive biscuits, vanilla wafers, or graham crackers work well. Avoid soft cookies as they won't provide enough structure.
The mixture likely needs more chilling time. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or freeze for 1-2 hours before slicing. Ensure your kitchen isn't too warm.
Yes, use almonds, hazelnuts, or pistachios in equal amounts. Avoid nuts that are too oily or soft, as they affect texture.
Only if you use gluten-free biscuits. All other ingredients are naturally gluten-free, but verify biscuit labels.
