directions
- In a small saucepan heat the jam over low heat until melted, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
- Stir in raspberry liqueur or orange juice; set aside to cool completely.
- In another small saucepan heat chocolates over low heat until melted and smooth. Remove from heat.
- Stir in the honey, brandy or orange juice, and 1 tablespoon of the whipping cream until well combined.
- Transfer mixture to a large bowl and set aside to cool completely.
- In a chilled, large mixing bowl beat the remaining whipping cream until stiff peaks just form.
- Remove 1 cup of the whipped cream and set aside.
- Stir 1/2 cup of the whipping cream into the chocolate mixture to lighten.
- Fold remaining whipped cream into the cooled chocolate mixture.
- Spoon the chocolate mixture into 6 stemmed wine glasses or dessert dishes.
