Ingredients for Chocolate Raspberry Sticks
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
- 8 ounces dark chocolate (70% or higher cacao), chopped
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions to Make Chocolate Raspberry Sticks
- Prepare the Raspberry Filling: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the raspberries, honey (or maple syrup), and lemon juice. Stir and cook until raspberries break down.
- Thicken the Mixture: Add the cornstarch-water mixture to the saucepan and stir continuously until the raspberry filling thickens. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
- Shape the Raspberry Sticks: Transfer the raspberry mixture to a piping bag or a small spoon, and create thin lines of filling on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Freeze for about 1 hour until firm.
- Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil together, stirring until smooth. Add vanilla extract.
- Coat the Raspberry Sticks: Dip the frozen raspberry strips into the melted chocolate, ensuring they are fully coated. Place them back onto the parchment paper.
- Set and Serve: Allow the chocolate to harden at room temperature or refrigerate for faster setting. Enjoy!
