Step 1
Place the cookies in a bag and tie it closed. Beat them from the outside with a rolling pin or meat mallet. The cookies will break unevenly. There's no need to crush them into fine crumbs.

I use walnuts and cashews. Lightly toast them in a dry skillet. Rinse the raisins and cherries. Use nuts according to your preference. If you don't like dried fruits, you can omit them altogether.

Step 8
Place the sausage in the freezer for 45 minutes. Do not leave it longer, as the sausage will harden and become difficult to slice. If you plan to eat it later, it's better to store the sausage in the refrigerator instead of the freezer. Such sausage can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 7 days. Before serving, roll the sausage in powdered sugar, slice it, and serve.
