Ingredients
- 1 cup raspberries 4 oz, fresh
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter softened, unsalted
- 3 cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Combine raspberries, sugar, lemon juice and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Cook, stirring frequently, until berries release their juices and berries are softened. Smoosh the berries with your spoon or spatula as you stir until berries are completely broken up.
- Reduce heat to a simmer and continue to cook, stirring constantly until mixture is thickened – the spoon or spatula should leave trails in the sauce.
- Set a fine mesh strainer over a heatproof bowl and pour raspberry sauce through the strainer. Use a spatula to stir the mixture to encourage as much juice through the strainer as possible.
- Discard the seeds caught in the strainer. I recommend measuring the sauce, you should have 3 ½-4 Tablespoons after straining. If you have significantly more than this you may not have reduced your raspberry sauce enough and should return it to the saucepan to thicken a bit longer.
- Allow sauce to cool completely before proceeding.
- Once sauce has cooled, place butter in a large bowl and use an electric mixer to beat until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add powdered sugar until completely combined.
- Add raspberry sauce gradually, about 1 Tablespoon at a time and stirring until completely combined.
- Use frosting as desired.

Notes
- The raspberry sauce may be made up to 3 days in advance, just store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use.
- The frosting may also be made up to 5 days in advance, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and bring to room temperature and stir again before using.
