2 egg whites
2 teaspoons sugar
4 tablespoons/70g plain yogurt

1 Break chocolate into a pirex jug and gently heat the jug in saucepan of water. When the chocolate is fully melted take the jug out of the saucepan and allow it to cool for a few minutes.
2 Separate the egg yokes from the white. Add the sugar to the whites and whisk them until they become firm and form soft peaks as the whisk is removed.
3 Add the chocolate to the yogurt and mix them together well.
4 Fold the egg white into the chocolate yogurt and then spoon the mixture into ramekins or what ever bowls or glasses you have to hand. Refrigerate the mixture for 2 hours to allow it to set.
5 Just before serving arrange the raspberries on top and use a potato peeler to create chocolate shavings for decoration.
