Errr... personally I buy glaze which is made in France, its neutral and you can add red coloring.
Making glaze with fresh rasps has to be done fresh as rasps tend to go grey, soemthing that came with brownies is probably made with cleargel,wheat starch or similar goop.
Neil Sheldon probably has a recipe for rasp glaze as he works as pastry chef at restaurants where they make that sort of thing for desserts.
If you can find frozen rasps in syrup just mash em up , add a touch grand marnier ( a nip bottle) and you've got it.
It can be thickened with arrowroot, strain the raps from the syrup, take 25% of the syrup and stir a spoon of arrowroot into it, heat the rest of the syrup and whisk the other 25% into it, let cool after it thickens and stir the rasps back in, heating the rasps will make them discolor.
I get $15 an hour to do this, still waiting for the first check though.!
