These rich, dense fudgy brownies are topped with tart sweet raspberries and baked into cute little tarts. They are bursting with decadent chocolate flavor. This is the best chocolate dessert you will ever make! It's so easy that even someone that doesn't bake a lot can make these! Dark chocolate, butter, sugar, cream, eggs, flour and raspberries.
Chocolate Desserts
Do you have a favorite dessert? Mine would be anything with chocolate. For special days, like Valentine's Day, Mother's Day or our anniversary my husband always picks us up a huge slice of a decadent chocolate cake from a local bakery.
I waned to make something similar at home. Something that had that dense chocolate flavor. Fudgy and intense. Since I rarely bake, it had to be easy too. I had already mastered The Easiest Flourless Chocolate Cake, but I wanted to try something new.

What I love about this easy chocolate dessert (besides how amazingly delicious it is) is that I almost always have the ingredients to make in in my pantry and fridge. All I need to do is run to the store and grab some raspberries.

Dark Chocolate Raspberry Brownie Tarts
Oh my. What can I say about this lovely little tart that will do it justice. It’s crazy easy. I have already made it again (twice in one week!) and will probably make it again in the very near future. It would be the perfect Valentine’s day dessert. It is rich and chocolatey with a bit of tart sweetness from the raspberry.
I found this recipe in an old Donna Hay magazine. The original recipe served with a chocolate ganache, but it didn't need it!

These sound really good. By looking at the ingredient list I’m thinking I could even make these gluten free for my son. Thanks Pam for always sharing such lovely desserts.
With so little flour, these would be easy to convert to gluten free!
They look so good. A perfect Valentine's treat.
I can't wait to make these for Valentine's Day!
Oooooh, chocolate & raspberry together = heavenly.
