Raspberry and chocolate has always been a favorite combination of mine. I made some of these tasty treats the other day. It’s been a while since I shared a recipe. Since it’s the Holiday season I’ve been in baking mode and felt like this was the perfect recipe to share. It’s really easy to make and is a great addition to your cookie tray or dessert table.
I love them because it’s dark chocolate (but you can use sweeter chocolate if you’d like) and raspberry which is one of my favorite fruits.
My mom used to make all kinds of candy and had hundreds of candy molds when I was growing up. She would pull out her electric skillet, fill it half way with water, put some empty jelly jars in it and fill them with chocolate wafers. She’d sit there for hours making different fillings and all kinds of chocolate candies for all the holidays.
This recipe is a simple (keto) variation of those candies that she used to make. If you are going to spend the day making candy with milk and dark chocolates then by all means do the electric skillet and/or the double boiler method. Since I am just making a tray or two, I’ll be using the microwave. The filling is just mashed raspberries, so it really is very easy to make.
These would also be great with cacao nibs or little pieces of nuts added to the raspberry filling!
