Raspberry-Chocolate Gelatin
- 3 cups raspberries, plus more for topping
- 1 cup sugar
- 6 teaspoons unflavored gelatin powder (about three 1/4-ounce packets)
- Cooking spray
- 2/3 cup half-and-half
- 2 ounces semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
- Whipped cream, for topping
- Puree the raspberries with 3/4 cup sugar and 1/3 cup water in a blender.
- Pour through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl.
- Bring half of the raspberry puree to a boil in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Sprinkle 4 teaspoons gelatin over 1/2 cup cold water in a medium bowl; let stand 1 minute.
- Stir in the hot raspberry puree until the gelatin dissolves, then stir in the remaining raspberry puree.
- Spray nine 5-ounce paper cups with cooking spray.
- Fill each cup about three-quarters full with the raspberry gelatin mixture.
- Refrigerate until the gelatin starts setting but the surface is still tacky, about 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, bring the half-and-half and the remaining 1/4 cup sugar to a boil in a small saucepan, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
- Add the chocolate, reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring, until smooth.
- Sprinkle the remaining 2 teaspoons gelatin over 1/2 cup cold water in a medium bowl; let stand 1 minute.
- Pour in the chocolate mixture and stir until the gelatin dissolves.
- Pour the chocolate gelatin mixture into the cups on top of the raspberry gelatin and refrigerate until fully set, about 3 hours.
- Unmold the gelatin: Invert the cups onto plates and carefully tear off the paper.
- Top with whipped cream and raspberries.
