Who doesn’t love the combination of raspberry and chocolate? These little tarts are so easy and irresistible. They make a tasty sweet little treat to finish off any meal. So quick to make, but they do need to set for half an hour.
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 5-10 minutes
Total time: 50 minutes
Serves / makes : 20
Ingredients
- 125g chocolate biscuits – crunchy, not coated, e.g. Chocolate Ripple
- 50g butter melted
- 85g raspberry jelly crystals
- ½ cup boiling water
- ½ cup raspberry coulis (see below)
- ½ cup condensed milk or cream
- raspberries
- icing sugar
Raspberry coulis
- 1 cup raspberries, fresh or frozen
- 2 tablespoons caster sugar
Method
- To make raspberry coulis, place raspberries in a saucepan with caster sugar. Stir over medium–high heat until a sauce starts to form (about 5–10 minutes). Push through a sieve to remove the seeds. Discard seeds.
- To make the base, place biscuits in food processor and blend until fine crumbs form. Add melted butter and mix to combine.
- Press mixture firmly into base of mini muffin cups until it is compacted. Place in fridge while you prepare the filling.
- Dissolve the jelly with boiling water in a jug. Stir to ensure completely dissolved. Add ½ cup of raspberry coulis and when slightly cooled add condensed milk or cream. Either completely combine the ingredients, or just stir a few times and leave a swirled effect through the mixture, then pour over chocolate crumb base in the mini muffin cups.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until set.
- Serve topped with a raspberry and a dusting of icing sugar.
For a more sophisticated option, set raspberry mix in small shot glasses and serve topped with a raspberry and a sprinkle of chocolate biscuit crumble. These little sweet sensations also make great finger food for a party.
