Method

Making the Raspberry Gelato

  1. 1

    Prepare the Raspberry Puree

    In a blender, puree the fresh raspberries and sugar until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds.

  2. 2

    Make the Gelato Base

    In a saucepan, combine heavy cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract. Heat until just simmering. In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks until pale. Slowly whisk in the hot cream mixture, then return to the saucepan and cook until thickened.

  3. 3

    Combine and Freeze

    Remove from heat, then stir in the raspberry puree. Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer's instructions. Freeze until firm.

Coating the Gelato

  1. 4

    Melt the Chocolate

    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine bittersweet chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.

  2. 5

    Dip the Gelato

    Scoop the frozen raspberry gelato into balls and dip each ball into the melted chocolate. Place on a parchment-lined tray and freeze until set.

Making the Raspberry Chambord Sauce

  1. 6

    Cook the Sauce

    In a small saucepan, combine fresh raspberries, Chambord, and sugar. Cook over medium heat until the raspberries break down and the sauce thickens slightly.

  2. 7

    Blend and Strain

    Blend the sauce until smooth and strain to remove seeds if desired. Let cool before serving.
