　　Somewhere between custard and cake lies the clafoutis, a simple French country dessert traditionally made with cherries. In this dark chocolate and raspberry version, your blender does most of the work.

　　

Ingredients

Makes 6 servings

　　12 ounces fresh raspberries (2 3/4 cups)

　　1 tablespoon granulated sugar

　　1 cup whole milk

　　1/2 stick unsalted butter, melted

　　3 large eggs

　　1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar

　　1/3 cup all-purpose flour

　　2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder

　　1/4 teaspoon salt

　　3 to 3 1/2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped

　　

Step 1

Step 2

Toss berries with granulated sugar and let stand 15 minutes.

　　

Step 3

Blend milk, butter, eggs, brown sugar, flour, cocoa, and salt in a blender until smooth. Scatter berries (with juices) evenly in baking dish, then pour batter over top.
