Raspberry Frosting With Raspberry Jam Recipes

RASPBERRY FROSTING

Steps:

• With an electric mixer, cream the butter until smooth.
• Add in 1 cup of the powdered sugar. Mix until combined.
• Add in the milk. Mix.Add in 1 more cup of powdered sugar. Mix well. Add in the vanilla. Mix.
• Scrape sides and add in the final cup of powdered sugar. Mix well.
• Add in the raspberry Jam and mix until combined and smooth.

RASPBERRY FROSTING

Steps:

• Puree berries with granulated sugar in a food processor until smooth. Pass mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
• In another bowl, beat butter on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to medium and add confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Beat in berry puree. Frosting can be stored in refrigerator up to 2 days; bring to room temperature and beat on low speed until smooth again before using.

RASPBERRY CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese and butter in a bowl with an electric mixer until smooth. Add confectioners' sugar and raspberry extract; beat until smooth. Fold in raspberry jam.

RASPBERRY JAM BUTTERCREAM

Steps:

• Place butter and jam in a mixing bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
• Cream butter and jam until well incorporated, about 2 minutes.
• Add powdered sugar, one cup at a time until you reach desired consistency.
• If frosting gets too thick you can add a little milk to thin it out.
• If you are not satisfied with the pink colour from the jam/preserves alone add in a drop or two of red food colour to intensify it.

RASPBERRY JAM CAKE

Steps:

• Grease and flour 2 (9-inch) round cake pans.
• Prepare Cake mix according to package directions using 1 cup water, 1/4 cup oil, 3 eggs and 1 pkg (4-serving size) Jell-o French Vanilla Flavor Instant Pudding & Pie Filling.
• Place one baked layer on plate.
• Spread 1/3 cup seedless raspberry jam to within 1 inch of edge.
• Top with second layer.
• Spread 1 can Creamy Supreme Vanilla Frosting over sides of cake, bringing frosting just over top edge.
• Top with 1/2 cup seedless raspberry jam; spread evenly.
• Garnish with fresh raspberries.

RASPBERRY JAM BUNS WITH CRèME FRAîCHE FROSTING

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the milk until it is body temperature (you can also use the microwave for this). Transfer the warm milk to a large bowl and stir in the yeast. Let the mixture sit until the yeast is dissolved and looks cloudy (almost like miso soup), about 5 minutes. A few bubbles on the surface is also a good sign that your yeast is ready.
• Crack one of the eggs into a small bowl and beat with a fork. Add the beaten egg to the milk-yeast mixture, along with the flour, granulated sugar, salt, and butter. Use a wooden spoon to mix everything together until the dough starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl. (If after a minute or two of mixing it doesn't pull away from the bowl, add a little more flour, 1 Tbsp at a time, until it does. On the other hand, if the dough seems far too dry and impossible to mix, add a little more milk, 1 Tbsp at a time, until it becomes a little more forgiving. This is the nuanced part of baking where all the tiny variables-how humid the air is, how you measured your flour, etc.-all come into play. Don't worry too much and trust your instincts.)Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface. Shape the dough into a large ball and knead it by pressing it with the heel of your hand and pushing it away from you, then immediately pulling it back, folding the top of the dough back on itself. Kneading is all about this push-and-pull. Turn the dough clockwise a little bit each time you push and pull it so that it gets evenly worked, and knead it until its surface is completely smooth and the whole thing feels both solid and soft at the same time, not unlike a baby's bottom (probably my favorite line in this book). It will take a solid 5 minutes of kneading.Put the dough back in the large bowl and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Let the dough sit in the warmest spot in your kitchen until it's soft and puffy and just about doubled in volume, about 1 hour.Return the dough to the lightly floured work surface and use a floured rolling pin to roll it into a large ovalish rectangle measuring roughly 18 in [46 cm] long and 12 in [30.5 cm] wide. If the dough resists while you are rolling it, simply let it rest until it yields to the rolling pin; dough responds well to patience. Spread the surface of the dough evenly with the raspberry jam, leaving a ½-in [12-mm] border. Starting from a long side, roll the dough up tightly so you end up with an 18-in [46-cm] rope. Cut the rope into a dozen even slices (I like to cut it in half and then cut each half in half, and so forth, so that it's easy to get even pieces). The ends might not have much jam-you can still add them to the bunch to make a baker's dozen.Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the buns, spiraled-jam-side up, on the prepared baking sheet in relatively even rows. The buns should be touching each other but not shoving each other and the seams on the rolls should be facing inward in the "huddle" so that they don't unravel in the oven. Cover the buns loosely with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature until they've risen a bit and are soft and puffy, about 1 hour. Or, so you can prepare them the night ahead, let them rise at room temperature for just 30 minutes, cover in plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. The next morning, pull them out and let return to room temperature, about 1 hour, before proceeding.Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 350°F [180°C].Crack the remaining egg into a small bowl and whisk it with 1 Tbsp water. Uncover the buns and brush them with the egg mixture (I use my hands for this so I get to be very gentle, achieve even coverage, and don't have to wash a brush afterward). Discard whatever egg mixture is left over (or save for another use such as a tiny omelet).Bake the buns until they're beautifully browned and the exposed jam is caramelized, 25 to 30 minutes.While the buns are in the oven (ha!), in a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, crème fraîche, and vanilla.Drizzle the hot buns (yeow!) with the crème fraîche mixture-this should be a wonderfully messy moment. Serve immediately (an even more wonderfully messy moment). These buns are best served warm out of the oven rather than at room temperature.

CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY FROSTING

Steps:

• Stir chocolate in top of double boiler over simmering water until melted and smooth. Pour chocolate into large bowl. Cool to room temperature. Add sour cream, jam, corn syrup, framboise and vanilla to chocolate. Using electric mixer, beat until mixture is fluffy, smooth and light in color, about 3 minutes. Beat in butter. (Frosting can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Whisk frosting before using.)
