Print Recipe

Ingredients

300g dark chocolate, finely chopped
100g milk chocolate, finely chopped
For the Raspberry Layer:
200g fresh raspberries
50g white sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp pectin
200g pistachios, shelled and unsalted
100g white chocolate, melted
50ml heavy cream
A handful of crushed pistachios
A small amount of freeze-dried raspberry pieces
Edible gold leaf (optional)

Instructions

To make the chocolate base, temper the dark and milk chocolate by melting in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water, stirring continuously until smooth.

Brush melted chocolate inside dome molds to create a thin layer. Chill in the refrigerator until set.

For the raspberry layer, combine raspberries, sugar, lemon juice, and pectin in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until thickened. Cool slightly and spoon a layer over the set chocolate in each mold.

For the pistachio filling, blend pistachios in a food processor until finely ground. Add melted white chocolate and cream; process until smooth.

Fill each chocolate raspberry pistachio domes with the pistachio mixture, leaving room to seal with more tempered chocolate.

Before sealing, sprinkle the tops with crushed pistachios and freeze-dried raspberry pieces, then seal the domes with the remaining chocolate and chill until set.

Once set, carefully un-mold the chocolate domes.

As a final garnish, place a small piece of edible gold leaf on top of each chocolate raspberry pistachio domes, if using.
