Scale
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- ½ cup dark or semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)
- Sea salt or crushed nuts for topping (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Raspberries: Gently rinse the fresh raspberries under cold water and pat them dry carefully to avoid damage. Place the dried raspberries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze them for at least 30 minutes until they are firm and well-chilled.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil if using. Heat the mixture in 20-second intervals, stirring after each interval until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth without any lumps.
- Dip the Raspberries: Using a fork or toothpick, carefully dip each frozen raspberry into the melted chocolate, allowing any excess chocolate to drip off before placing it back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Add Toppings (Optional): While the chocolate is still wet, lightly sprinkle sea salt or crushed nuts over the chocolate-dipped raspberries to add texture and enhance flavors.
- Freeze to Set: Return the dipped raspberries to the freezer and chill them for an additional 10 to 15 minutes until the chocolate coating hardens completely.
- Serve or Store: Serve immediately as a refreshing frozen treat, or store the chocolate frozen raspberries in an airtight container in the freezer for later enjoyment.
Notes
- You can substitute dark chocolate with white or milk chocolate for a different flavor profile.
- These frozen chocolate raspberries make a quick, healthy dessert or snack right from the freezer.
- For smoother chocolate coating, adding a little coconut oil helps with melting consistency.
- Store leftovers in a sealed container between layers of parchment paper to prevent sticking.
