Raspberry bliss bombs

What a taste sensation — the slightly bitter hard chocolate and juicy raspberry in the middle makes these well and truly worth the effort. Great as an after-dinner treat.

Ingredients

  • 200g good quality dark chocolate

  • 1 cup frozen raspberries

Equipment

  • 1 microwave
  • 1 spoon
  • 1 aluminium foil

Instructions

  1. Melt chocolate in microwave on medium heat for 1 minute, stir and then cook for another minute on medium heat.
  2. Stir until smooth and allow to cool slightly. Place a sheet of aluminium foil on a bench.
  3. Place a raspberry on a spoon and use a second spoon to drizzle melted chocolate over the raspberry.
  4. Carefully roll chocolate-raspberry ball onto the foil. Repeat until all chocolate is used up.
  5. Patience is a virtue, consider sitting down for this recipe! Allow to set and then store in the fridge.
  6. Sneak one as often as possible.

Notes

Tip
Using frozen raspberries sets the chocolate quickly and makes it easier to get neat, round chocolate balls.
Tip
I usually only take out about 10 raspberries at a time so they don’t defrost.
Tip
Fresh or defrosted raspberries tend to collapse under the melted chocolate.
Tip
There is a bit of a knack to getting the chocolate temperature right so you don’t end up with a puddle around each raspberry.
Tip
The first few make for wonderful cook’s treats!
Storage
Store in the fridge.
