A ruby chocolate ganache recipe made with raspberries and cream. Ideal for filling macarons, bon bons, and sandwich biscuits; frosting cakes and cupcakes; or rolling into chocolate truffles.

Ingredients

Scale

120 grams fresh raspberries (1 cup), puréed and re-weighed to 60 grams (1/4 cup)

80 milliliters whipping cream (1/3 cup)
30 grams unsalted butter, softened (2 tablespoons)


Instructions

In a high-speed blender or the bowl of a food processor, process 120 grams (1 cup) of fresh or thawed frozen raspberries until smooth:
