What’s that you say? What are Wednesdays with Dorie? Huh. Well, if you must know…Tuesday went by too quickly!

So I did the lazy cook’s version of this…really, I didn’t have a third layer of ganache in me…And I once again must give a shout out to Amy of Food, Family and Fun–while this dessert is a bit of a show-stopper? It is so easy…Yet again, I’m eased back into the TWD (or WWD) fold…Man, thanks to Dorie, too, for this spectacularly easy impressive dessert…

I happened to have some traditional ganache in my fridge…A whole lot of it I was busy hiding from my daughter so she didn’t OD on the stuff. That was quickly softened for the first layer…Easy to blend the raspberries with some good vanilla (not great vanilla, though…just good..Do you know those cheats at these companies are not packing 1/2 gallons of ice cream anymore? Go look. Same price: three pints. I am going to start making my own ice cream all the time now. They cheat.)…I forgot the framboise, which was a disappointment. I try to never pass up the opportunity for more liquor in my day, but oh well…

A final topping of ganache (BTW, about traditional ganache, with cream…I used it because it is what I had…and while I will dig into raw eggs with the best of ’em–homemade mayo being high up on my list of great foods–when I’m feeding small children or strangers (this might go into the magazine offices), I’m a little bit shy about raw egg…I digress..yet again..)

The whole thing went into the freezer overnight, and in the interest of blogging, I had a slice for my ….my…um, my 10.30 a.m. break (like I needed one!)…And it was good.
