Vegan Raspberry Glaze Recipes

KAREN'S RASPBERRY GLAZE FOR CAKES - VEGAN

Steps:

• Add the soft coconut oil to a 2 cup bowl. Sift confectionary sugar over and stir with a wire whisk until very smooth. Add milk and almond extract, beat smooth.
• Crush the freeze dried raspberries fine: tear a 1 foot piece of waxed paper. Lay on your work surface, add raspberries and fold over to enclose. Run a rolling pin over back and forth until the raspberries are crushed fine.Add this to the bowl and mix in well until you have a pretty pink color. Use immediately.(Add a dropful of milk if too thick; confectionary sugar if seems thin.)

VEGAN CHOCOLATE-RASPBERRY CAKE WITH DARK CHOCOLATE GANACHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Oil and flour a fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®).
• Combine flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Add 2 cups soy milk, oil, vinegar, and vanilla extract and stir until just combined. Pour batter evenly into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven, watching closely, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Invert cake onto a serving platter with a sheet of wax paper underneath the cake. Let cool completely, about 45 minutes, before glazing.
• Combine jam and 1 tablespoon water in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat glaze in a microwave oven at 50% power for about 1 minute.
• Combine chocolate chips and 1/4 cup soy milk in the top of a double boiler over medium heat. Stir until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Add coffee granules and stir until smooth. Remove ganache from heat and let sit to thicken slightly, about 8 minutes.
• Spoon and spread raspberry glaze all over the top and sides of the cake. Follow with ganache. Allow cake to sit in a cool place until serving. Before serving, remove the wax paper from under the cake.
