Chocolate Covered Raspberries
Report
Chocolate covered raspberries are such a beautiful homemade dessert. The contrast between the tart juicy fruit and the sweet, creamy chocolate is delightful!

Ingredients
- 30 fresh raspberries 1 heaping cup; pick large and firm ones
- ⅓ cup dark chocolate chips 2 ounces
- 1 teaspoon oil I use avocado oil
Instructions
- Line a large plate or a tray with wax paper. Wash the raspberries. Place them on a clean kitchen towel. Allow them to dry completely, for about 30 minutes.
- Place the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt them in the microwave, in 30-second sessions, stirring after each session. My chocolate chips were melted after three such sessions.
- Stir the oil into the melted chocolate.
- Dip each raspberry into the melted chocolate. Lift up and twist around to get rid of any excess chocolate. Place on the wax paper.
- Freeze the raspberries for 15 minutes before serving to allow the chocolate to set.
Notes
- I recommend using large, firm raspberries. I typically buy two containers and pick the best ones out of each container to use in this recipe. The smaller ones don't go to waste - we simply snack on them, or I serve them as a dessert topped with whipped cream.
- The oil helps keep the chocolate from becoming brittle as it hardens.
- Frozen raspberries are delicious in many recipes, but they won't work for dipping in chocolate. They tend to be small and mushy.
- You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a day, but it's best to enjoy these on the day you make them. Please take them out of the fridge 30 minutes before serving them.
- I don't recommend freezing the leftovers.
