What goes into the recipe

- SOUR CREAM! It's the secret ingredient that makes these have such an amazing texture. Make sure you use a full fat version, otherwise it is a lot thinner.
- double chocolate- cocoa and chocolate chips. I use nestle cocoa powder and the chocolate chips are from costco.
- raspberries - use them from frozen for the ultimate convenience, they will also hold their shape better in the mini loaves this way.
- coconut oil- I use this instead of butter, you can use butter if you prefer, or any light flavoured oil.

Expert Tips and FAQs
I'm all about easy, quick recipes and this one is just that! Top tips:
- don't overmix these double chocolate raspberry mini loaves, much like muffins, you don't want to overmix them as it will cause them to be dense and unpleasant.
- you don't have to make these in mini loaf pans, they also work well as muffins and should make 15, keep an eye on the timings if you do make them as muffins as they will probably take a little less time.
I use dark chocolate chips because the flavour really works well with the raspberries.
In the fridge for up to three days in an airtight container.
On a tray until solid and then move to a container. They will store for up to 3 months.
It is flour that already contains baking powder. If you don't have it locally, you can use 2 tsps of baking powder for each cup of plain flour.
Sour cream makes these loaves so much moister and softer than had I just used milk. It makes them much more moist and delicious.
