- Chocolate Box: Chop up the chocolate till very fine. In a microwave safe bowl heat 2/3 c. (5 ounce) of chocolate. Place in the microwave for 30 seconds. Remove and stir. Continue this process at 10 second intervals till the chocolate is completely melted, and hot to touch of the lip (100 degrees). Add in remaining finely minced chocolate. Stir until smooth.
- Fill one plastic box at a time with chocolate. Turn upside down to release excess chocolate. Place upside down on tray and continue filling the 5 other boxes. This should only take 5 min. While the chocolate is still soft, scrape excess bits away with a knife creating an even surface. Continue with remaining boxes. Place in refrigerator for 15 min. Chocolate when exposed to a cool environment will retract from the plastic box.
- Remove from refrigerator and gently tweak the box to gently conjoal the two apart. Turn upside down and spoon in chocolate mousse. Garnish with the raspberries.
