Sweets
More?! You want more? No matter how much is consumed over the course of a long Christmas lunch or dinner, it seems there’s always room for sweets. Even if the thought of dessert seems just too much, an alcohol-soaked rum ball or piece of raspberry-studded chocolate truffle slice won’t tip you over the edge. You could use the spiced sablé stars to decorate the tree or as place settings for the Christmas feast to be devoured with the end-of-meal coffee.

Chocolate and raspberry truffle slice

Serves 60
300 gm   raspberries
200 ml   pouring cream
50 ml   Framboise
600 gm   dark chocolate (57% cocoa solids), finely chopped
For dusting:   Dutch-process cocoa


1 Combine 200gm raspberries, pouring cream and Framboise in a small saucepan and bring to the boil over medium-high heat. Process in a food processor, then pass through a fine sieve into a clean saucepan.
2 Clean food processor and add chocolate. Bring raspberry mixture to the boil and with motor running, pour over chocolate in food processor and process until smooth. Pour half the chocolate mixture into a baking paper-lined 20cm x 30cm tray, scatter with remaining raspberries and pour over remaining chocolate mixture. Smooth top and refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight until set.
3 Using a warm sharp knife, cut truffles into cubes, dust with cocoa and serve. Truffles will keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
