Raspberry Jam Chocolate Bites (Print Version)

Chocolate bites with raspberry chia jam, a sweet and healthy frozen treat for every craving.

# Ingredients:

→ Raspberry Jam Filling

01 - 180 grams fresh raspberries
02 - 15 millilitres maple syrup or honey
03 - 10 grams chia seeds

→ Chocolate Coating

04 - 150 grams dark chocolate chips or chunks
05 - 5 millilitres coconut oil

# Instructions:

01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, ensuring it fits within your freezer for ease of chilling.
02 - In a medium bowl, mash the raspberries with a fork. Blend in the chia seeds and maple syrup or honey until evenly combined. Let the mixture rest for 5–10 minutes to allow it to thicken.
03 - Using a spoon, portion out approximately 30 millilitres of the raspberry mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing each disc 5 centimetres apart. Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer and chill for at least 1 hour or until the discs are fully solidified.
04 - Place the dark chocolate and coconut oil in a heat-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each increment, until the mixture is completely smooth and glossy.
05 - Quickly dip each frozen jam disc into the melted chocolate, ensuring full coverage. Return the chocolate-coated discs to the baking sheet.
06 - Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top for added flavour contrast. Freeze the bites for an additional 10 minutes or until the chocolate shell is firm before serving.

# Notes:

01 - Store bites in an airtight container in the freezer for optimal freshness and texture.
