Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pint fresh raspberries about 6 oz, thoroughly dried
  • 6 oz dark chocolate chips or bars finely chopped
  • 1 tsp coconut oil optional, for smoother shell
  • 24 sliced almonds for the 'fangs'

Equipment

  • Double Boiler or Microwave-Safe Bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Ensure raspberries are completely dry.
  2. Melt dark chocolate and coconut oil (if using) in a double boiler or microwave, stirring until smooth.
  3. Gently press a sliced almond into the side of each raspberry to create 'fangs'.
  4. Holding a raspberry, dip it into the melted chocolate to coat fully. Let excess drip off.
  5. Place coated raspberry on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining berries.
  6. If desired, dust with cocoa powder or drizzle with melted white chocolate before chocolate sets.
  7. Let chocolates set at room temperature for 1-2 hours, or refrigerate for 15-20 minutes until firm.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

Best enjoyed the same day. Store in a single layer in a cool place. Ensure berries are VERY dry to prevent chocolate seizing.
