Raspberry Ganache Pie


2 pkg. (4 oz. each) semi-sweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
1 cup whipping cream
6 Tbsp. seedless raspberry jam, divided
1 ready-to-use chocolate flavor crumb crust (6 oz.)
2 cups fresh raspberries
1 Tbsp. water

Microwave chocolate and cream in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 min. or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring after each minute. Beat with whisk until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended. Stir in 2 Tbsp. jam.

Pour into crust. Refrigerate four hours.

I did't really know what "ganache" was, but I'm impressed that something that sounds so fancy can be made in the microwave.


Arrange berries on top of pie. 

Then things start getting gorgeous.


Microwave remaining jam and water in small microwaveable bowl on HIGH 30 sec.; stir until blended. 

Big raspberries from the grocery store and little raspberries from the bush in our backyard!


Brush onto berries. Keep refrigerated.

Then just sit back and gaze upon its beauty for a while. 



Make Ahead: Pie can be prepared ahead of time. Freeze up to 2 days. Place in refrigerator to thaw about 2 hours before serving.


My Rating: 5/5 "Jeepers this is amazing. It's chocolate and raspberries and more chocolate and more raspberries. The combination is glorious. My husband is really anti-leftovers of any kind, but he was chomping at the bit to eat more of this the next day. You will not regret investing your time in this."
