Ingredients - Serves 12

Place the chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl.
In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it starts to simmer.
Pour the hot cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for 1 minute.
Stir the chocolate and cream mixture until smooth and well combined.
Add the raspberry puree and softened butter to the chocolate mixture. Stir until fully incorporated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm.
Using a small cookie scoop or a spoon, scoop out portions of the chilled chocolate mixture and roll them into balls.
Roll each truffle ball in cocoa powder to coat evenly.
Sprinkle crushed freeze-dried raspberries over the truffles for added flavor and decoration.
Place the truffles in an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to serve.
