Description
Dark Chocolate Jam Bites are sweet, fruity, and rich in flavor. These healthy, no-bake bites are quick to make and delicious.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1¼ cup (208g) fresh raspberries (or thawed frozen)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 cup (180g) dark chocolate chips or chunks
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional)
- 1 pinch flaky sea salt (optional)
Instructions
- Make the Raspberry Chia Jam
In a small saucepan, heat the raspberries over medium heat until they begin to break down and bubble (about 5–7 minutes). Stir frequently, using a fork or spoon to mash them into a jam-like consistency. - Stir in Chia Seeds
Remove from heat and stir in the chia seeds. Let the mixture sit for 10–15 minutes until it thickens into a spoonable jam. Set aside to cool completely. - Melt the Chocolate
In a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, melt the dark chocolate with the coconut oil, stirring until smooth. Be careful not to overheat. - Assemble the Bites
Spoon about 1 teaspoon of melted chocolate into each cavity of a silicone mold or mini muffin tin. Use the back of a spoon to spread chocolate up the sides. Chill for 5–10 minutes until firm. - Add the Jam
Spoon ½ to 1 teaspoon of raspberry chia jam into the center of each cavity over the hardened chocolate. - Seal with More Chocolate
Pour more melted chocolate over the jam, smoothing the tops. Optionally sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Chill again until fully set (about 30 minutes). - Unmold and Store
Pop the bites out of the mold and enjoy. Store in an airtight container in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
Use high-quality dark chocolate (70% or higher) for the best flavor.
Ensure the jam is fully cooled before assembling to avoid melting the chocolate shell.
Silicone molds make unmolding easiest, but mini muffin tins with liners also work.
Taste the jam — if it’s too tart, a tiny bit of maple syrup or honey can be added (not needed for most).
