I had bought a pound cake at the store yesterday when I wasn’t feeling well. I also picked up a pint of raspberries.

Tonight I made a chocolate ganache for the cake, but it was a bit plain. And then I eyed the raspberries in the fridge. A light went off in my head.

The ganache is incredibly simple. It’s equal parts of three chocolates, bittersweet, semi-sweet, and milk chocolates. After melting it in a double boiler, I added some cream to it.

Hey, I didn’t say it was a light dessert, but it sure was tasty.
