Chocolate Raspberry Mini Bites

My first Instructable! These mini-cakes put a smile on my face. I was inspired by delicate tea cakes and petit fours.

Bite-sized chocolate chip cakes made with all organic ingredients. Dipped in dark chocolate and covered in a fresh raspberry buttercream frosting. A classic combination of raspberries and chocolate.
