It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Not your typical pasta dish! Rich chocolate and raspberry, with Grand Marnier mixed into the sauce? Bring it on.

1 package (10 ounce size) chocolate pasta
3 tablespoons Grand Marnier
1 cup raspberry pie filling
1 pint heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons sugar
Cook the pasta as directed on the package. Drain well then rinse in cold water. Place in the refrigerator while you prepare the toppings.
Combine the Grand Marnier and raspberry pie filling until well mixed. Set aside.
Whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. Add the sugar, adding more if desired, and beat until incorporated.
To serve, top the chilled chocolate pasta with the whipped cream and spiked raspberry sauce.
