Method
Crust Preparation
Make the crust
In a medium bowl, mix together graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch tart pan. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes. Remove and let cool.
Filling Preparation
Prepare the filling
In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold into the cream cheese mixture. Stir in melted dark chocolate until fully incorporated.
Add raspberries
Gently fold in the fresh raspberries into the filling mixture, being careful not to crush them.
Assembly
Assemble the tartufo
Pour the filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
Serving
Serve the tartufo
Once set, garnish the tartufo with additional fresh raspberries, chocolate shavings, and mint leaves. Slice and serve chilled.
