Ingredients
Scale
- 28 fresh raspberries
- ½ cup (118 ml) dark chocolate chips, Lily’s brand
- 2 tbsps (10 ml) coconut oil
- ⅓ cup (79 ml) vanilla yogurt, Siggi’s 4%
Instructions
- Prep Berries: Rinse raspberries under cool water, thoroughly pat dry with paper towel, and ensure complete air drying to prevent moisture interference.
- Setup Surface: Line baking sheet with parchment paper, creating a clean staging area for the frozen delicacies.
- Yogurt Coating: Enrobe each raspberry with a uniform yogurt layer using a toothpick or fingertips, systematically positioning them on the prepared sheet.
- Initial Freeze: Chill the yogurt-enveloped raspberries in the freezer for 30-60 minutes until they become solidly firm.
- Chocolate Preparation: Combine chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl, gently melting in short intervals while stirring until achieving a silky, uniform consistency.
- Chocolate Immersion: Extract frozen yogurt-coated raspberries, then meticulously dip each one into the warm chocolate, ensuring complete coverage before returning to the parchment-lined sheet.
- Final Freezing: Place chocolate-draped raspberries back in the freezer for 10-15 minutes, allowing the chocolate shell to crystallize and harden completely. Optional: Create visual intrigue by drizzling contrasting chocolate varieties for a marbled effect.
Notes
- Rinse with Care: Thoroughly wash raspberries and dry completely to prevent ice crystals and ensure smooth chocolate coating.
- Freeze Strategically: Pre-freeze yogurt-coated raspberries helps create a stable base for chocolate dipping, preventing fruit from becoming too soft.
- Chocolate Melting Tip: Use short microwave intervals and stir frequently to avoid burning chocolate, maintaining a smooth, glossy texture.
- Handling Technique: Use toothpicks or dipping tools for precise chocolate coverage and minimal mess, creating professional-looking frozen treats.
