Choosing Your Ingredients
Start with fresh raspberries for a juicy, tart base. Next, opt for high-quality pistachios, toasted to enhance their natural nuttiness and crunch. Also, ensure your chocolate is smooth and of good quality; milk chocolate provides a creamy contrast that pairs beautifully with the raspberries and pistachios. Lastly, a touch of sunflower oil in the chocolate helps achieve a glossy, even coating.
Preparing the Chocolate Glaze
To create a flawless chocolate glaze, break the milk chocolate into small pieces and melt it in the microwave in short bursts, stirring frequently. Adding a small amount of sunflower oil to the melted chocolate enhances its smoothness and shine, resulting in a glossy, professional-looking finish that sets perfectly when chilled.

Assembling and Freezing
Carefully stuff each raspberry with a toasted pistachio. Arrange the stuffed raspberries on a tray and freeze them briefly to firm up. This ensures the chocolate coating sets quickly and evenly.

Ingredients
35 Raspberries
35 pistachios (shelled, toasted)
100g milk chocolate
15ml sunflower oil
Instructions
1
For the glaze, break the chocolate into small chunks and place them into a microwave-safe bowl. Melt in the microwave in short 10-second bursts, stirring constantly every 10 seconds. Once melted, add 15ml of sunflower oil and mix until combined. Set aside to cool slightly.
2
Stuff raspberries with pistachios and freeze for 20 minutes before dipping them in chocolate. This will help the chocolate to set up faster.
3
Using your hands, a fork, toothpick, or wooden skewer, dip the raspberries into the chocolate and wait until the excess drips off.

Transfer the raspberries to a small tray lined with parchment paper and place them in the fridge to set a bit.
Pistachio Preparation: Ensure pistachios are shelled and toasted before use. Toasting enhances their flavour and adds a delightful crunch.
Chocolate Melting: When melting the chocolate, be careful not to overheat it. Stirring every 10 seconds helps prevent burning and ensures a smooth consistency.
Storage: Store the finished raspberries in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They are best enjoyed within a few days for optimal freshness and flavour.
