Chocolate Raspberry Truffle Bars For Valentine's image

I found this recipe a few years ago in a church cookbook in a chapter entitled "6 or Fewer". It's absolutely wonderful and makes an incredible presentation. I made it for my husband last year for dessert after our Valentine's Day dinner. This year, when I asked him if there was anything special that he wanted to do for...

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 13x9 fudge brownie mix made with required ingredients
2 cups heavy whipping cream, divided
1 3.3 oz. instant white chocolate pudding mix
1 21 oz. can raspberry pie filling
fresh raspberries, hot fudge ice cream topping and additional whipped cream to garnish, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Note: When I use boxed mixes, I like to add 1 tsp. of real vanilla and, in chocolate mixes, 1 tsp. of ground cinnamon for a richer flavor, but this is totally optional.
  • 2. Prepare and bake brownie mix according to package directions using a prepared 13x9 pan, taking care not to over-bake. Cool completely.
  • 3. In small bowl, combine 1 cup of cream and pudding mix. Stir for 2 minutes until very thick. In a separate glass bowl, chilled if desired, beat remaining cream until stiff peaks form. Fold into pudding. Carefully spread over completely cooled brownies.
  • 4. Top with pie filling. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting. If desired, garnish with additional whipped cream, fresh raspberries and/or drizzle with hot fudge ice cream topping before serving. A drizzle of chocolate fudge sauce on the plate before plating looks really nice. Enjoy!
