Ingredients:
- 150g fresh or frozen raspberries
- 80g granulated sugar
- 5ml lemon juice
- 5g powdered gelatin
- 25ml cold water
- 150g dark chocolate (70% cocoa), finely chopped
- 120ml whole milk
- 50g sugar
- 240ml heavy cream, chilled
- 2 large eggs
- 50g sugar
- 40g all-purpose flour
- 10g unsweetened cocoa powder
- 100g glucose syrup
- 50ml water
- 100g sugar
- 65ml condensed milk
- 8g powdered gelatin
- 30ml water
- 100g white chocolate, chopped
Instructions:
- Puree 150g raspberries with 5ml lemon juice and 80g of the granulated sugar until smooth.
- Strain the mixture through a fine sieve to remove every single seed. Note: This ensures the velvety texture we're after.
- Bloom 5g of gelatin in 25ml cold water for 5 minutes, then melt it gently.
- Whisk the gelatin into the raspberry puree and pour into small insert molds.
- Freeze for 2 hours until the centers are rock solid and easy to handle.
- Whisk 2 eggs with 50g sugar until pale and fluffy.
- Fold in 40g flour and 10g cocoa powder gently to keep the air in.
- Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 10 minutes until the top springs back when touched.
- Cut circles that are slightly smaller than your dome molds using a cookie cutter.
- Melt 150g dark chocolate with 120ml warm whole milk and 50g sugar.
- Whisk until glossy and smooth, then let it cool to room temperature.
- Whip 240ml heavy cream until soft peaks form — don't go all the way to stiff!
- Fold the cream into the chocolate base in three batches. Note: This prevents the heavy chocolate from deflating the cream.
- Fill the molds halfway with chocolate mousse, then press a frozen raspberry core into the center.
- Cover with more mousse and top with a circle of cocoa sponge.
- Freeze for 4 hours (or overnight) until completely firm to the touch.
- Boil 100g glucose, 50ml water, and 100g sugar until the sugar dissolves.
- Stir in 65ml condensed milk and 8g bloomed gelatin, then pour over 100g white chocolate.
- Immersion blend (keeping the blade submerged) until the glaze is perfectly smooth.
- Pour at 90°F (32°C) over the frozen domes until they are fully cloaked in shine.
