How to Make Chocolate Raspberry Ganache Frosting

  1. In a small, heavy saucepan over medium heat, bring 1 cup of heavy cream to a simmer.
  2. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
  3. Add 8 ounces of chocolate chips, 1/2 cup raspberry preserves, and 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Gently swirl the pan to melt the chocolate and incorporate the preserves and butter.
  4. Let the mixture stand for 1 1/2 minutes, or until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
  5. Beat the mixture with a wire whisk until completely smooth and glossy.
  6. For immediate use as a glaze, allow the frosting to cool slightly until it thickens enough to spread.
  7. For a spreadable frosting, cool completely and then whip with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy.
  8. For best results, use milk chocolate or white chocolate chips.
