Chocolate and raspberry decadence! Wonderful for your Christmas gift giving and for amazing treats... top waffles and pancakes, drizzle over ice cream, stir into hot cocoa, slather on cakes, the sky is the limit! YUM

1/2 cup sifted unsweetened cocoa powder
6 Tbsp Ball®RealFruit™ Classic Pectin ~ this is a thick sauce once canned - decrease if you want a looser sauce
4 ½ cups crushed red raspberries
6 ¾ cups granulated sugar
4 Tbsp. bottled lemon juice
2-3 Tbsp. Chambord (optional)

Ladle hot salsa into hot pint or half-pint (8 oz) jars leaving 1/4” headspace. Remove air bubbles. Wipe jar rim. Center lid and apply band to fingertip tight.

Process for 10 minutes in boiling water or steam canner, adjusting for altitude as follows:
1,001-3,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 5 minutes
3,001-6,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 10 minutes
6,001-8,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 15 minutes
8,001-10,000 ft ~ increase processing time by 20 minutes

Allow jars to rest undisturbed for 12-24 hours. Remove bands, check seals, wash and label jars. Store in a cool dark dry place.
