- 1 1/2 tsp unflavored powdered gelatin
- 1 1/2 cups cold skim milk
- 3 Tbsp sugar
- 3 ounces dark chocolate with sea salt see photo
- 3 ounces reduced fat cream cheese room temperature
- Raspberries
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup cold milk. Let soften, about 5 minutes. Cook over low heat, stirring until gelatin has dissolved, about 3 minutes. Add sugar and stir until dissolved. Add remaining 1 cup milk and heat over low until warm (do not boil), about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Place chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat on high in 20 second increments, stirring each time, until melted. Add cream cheese to chocolate and using a spatula, stir until combined. Pour 1/4 cup gelatin mixture into chocolate mixture, stir until smooth. Gradually add remaining gelatin mixture, stirring until smooth. Divide among four dessert glasses and refrigerate until firm - at least 2 hours or up to 2 days. Top with berries before serving.
