Chocolate Raisin Candy
A simple American confection of melted dark and milk chocolate studded with chewy raisins, set firm in a shallow tray and cut into rich, chewy-centred pieces. It leans on good chocolate and plump raisins rather than any elaborate technique, making it a classic candy-counter style treat that is just as happy on a holiday gift plate as in a lunchbox.

Instructions
1
Set a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water (double-boiler) and melt the dark chocolate and milk chocolate together, stirring gently until fully smooth.
2
Remove from heat and stir in the melted butter and salt until glossy.
3
Fold in the chopped raisins so they are evenly distributed through the melted chocolate.
4
Line a small 10x10cm tin or flat tray with parchment and pour the mixture in, spreading it level to about 1cm thickness.
5
Tap the tray once on the counter to settle the chocolate and remove air bubbles.
6
Refrigerate for 45-60 minutes until fully set and firm to the touch.
7
Lift out using the parchment, then cut into 2 even pieces with a warm, dry knife.
8
Serve immediately or store as directed.
