Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh raspberries, plus extra for garnish

1 cup heavy cream

8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs

2 tbsp melted butter

Pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust:

    - In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and a pinch of salt. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.

      - Divide the mixture into dessert cups or small glasses, pressing gently to create a firm base. Set aside.

        Melt the Chocolate:

          - In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time until smooth and glossy. Let it cool slightly.

            Make the Raspberry Purée:

              - In a blender, blend the fresh raspberries until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine sieve to remove the seeds, if desired. Set aside about 2 tablespoons of the purée for garnish.

                Prepare the Mousse:

                  - In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until creamy and smooth.

                    - Add the cooled melted chocolate and vanilla extract, continuing to mix until well combined.

                      - In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture until no streaks remain.

                        - Gently fold in the raspberry purée, creating swirls for a marbled effect.

                          Assemble the Cups:

                            - Spoon or pipe the chocolate raspberry mousse into the prepared crust cups. Smooth the tops with a spatula.

                              - Refrigerate for at least 1-2 hours to set.

                                Garnish and Serve:

                                  - Before serving, drizzle the reserved raspberry purée over the mousse. Top each cup with a few fresh raspberries for an extra pop of color and freshness.

                                    - Enjoy your delightful, romantic dessert!
