Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • Chocolate shavings (for garnish, optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a square baking pan (8×8 inches) or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, and powdered sugar. Mix in the softened butter until the mixture is crumbly, then press it firmly into the bottom of the baking pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until set. Let it cool on a wire rack.
  3. Meanwhile, in another bowl, beat together the granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until it’s smooth. Set aside.
  4. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cocoa mixture until everything is well combined.
  5. Once the crust has cooled completely, spread the chocolate silk filling evenly over the crust. Arrange fresh raspberries on top, pressing them lightly into the filling.
  6. Refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours to set. Before serving, garnish with chocolate shavings if desired.
