How to Make Chocolate Raspberry Jam Canning Recipe

  1. Crush 6 cups of fresh or frozen raspberries thoroughly, 1 cup at a time. If using frozen, use both liquid and solids.
  2. Ensure your canning equipment is meticulously clean. Place 7 pint or half-pint jars on a rack in a boiling water canner.
  3. Fill the canner with water, adding 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to prevent mineral buildup. Bring to a boil while preparing the jam.
  4. Boil the jars for 10 minutes to sterilize them. Reduce heat to keep jars hot.
  5. Keep a kettle of hot water handy, and a saucepan of boiling water for lids and rings.
  6. In a 6-8 quart heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the crushed raspberries and 12 ounces of finely chopped dark chocolate.
  7. In a separate bowl, measure 6 cups of granulated sugar.
  8. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of the measured sugar with 1 package (1.75 oz) of liquid pectin.
  9. Stir the pectin-sugar mixture into the raspberry-chocolate mixture in the saucepan.
  10. Add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter.
  11. Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly.
  12. Boil for exactly 1 minute, stirring continuously.
  13. Remove the pan from the heat.
  14. Skim off any foam.
  15. Ladle the hot jam into the hot sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch headspace.
  16. Process in a boiling water canner for 10 minutes.
  17. Remove jars to a towel-lined surface, invert for 10 minutes, and let cool completely.
  18. Once cool, label the jars and store in a cool, dry place for up to 1 year.
