Directions
Ganache for the soup:
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 pound bittersweet chocolate, chopped
- 1/4 cup raspberry liqueur (recommended: Framboise
Raspberry Salad:
- 1/2 pint raspberries
- 2 tablespoon hazelnuts, roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint, thinly sliced
- Small pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons raspberry liqueur (recommended: Framboise)
- 4 ounces (1/2 cup) sweetened whipped cream, for garnish
- Small piece bittersweet chocolate to shave, for garnish
For the ganache:
In a small saucepan bring the cream, butter, and sugar to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the chopped chocolate so that it melts completely. Stir in the raspberry liqueur. Let the ganache cool to room temperature and reserve.
For the salad:
Gently combine the raspberries, hazelnuts, mint, small pinch of salt and raspberry liqueur.
In a wide, shallow soup bowl pour about 3 ounces of the room temperature ganache to fill a shallow pool in the bottom of the bowl, about 1/8-inch deep. Place a nice spoonful of the raspberry/hazelnut salad in the center and garnish with a small spoonful of whipped cream and shaved bittersweet chocolate. Top with chopped hazelnuts as well.

I made this for a Fat Tuesday party and wow! A little goes a really LONG way. I enjoyed the chocolate with the fruit and nuts but I couldn't taste the alcohol at all. I would definately add more next time. You have to be a chocoholic to like this dessert, it is very rich.
