Strawberry Sundae Sauce

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 25 min. + standing YIELD: 8 cups.
“My husband and kids simply love this recipe over their ice cream! It may also be used in banana splits. If you choose not to use liqueur, replace 1-1/2 cups of the mashed strawberries with 1-1/2 cups mashed raspberries instead.” Peggy Townsend - Florence, Colorado

Ingredients

  • 2 quarts fresh strawberries
  • 6 cups sugar
  • 1 pouch (3 ounces) liquid fruit pectin
  • 1/3 cup chocolate syrup
  • 1/3 cup raspberry liqueur, optional
  • Vanilla ice cream

Directions

  • 1. Wash and mash strawberries, measuring out enough mashed berries to make 4 cups. In a Dutch oven, combine strawberries and sugar. Bring to a full rolling boil over high heat, stirring constantly. Stir in pectin. Boil 1 minute longer, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat. Stir in syrup and liqueur if desired. Skim off foam.
  • 2. Pour into jars or freezer containers, leaving a 1/2-in. headspace. Cool to room temperature, about 1 hour. Cover and let stand overnight or until set. Refrigerate for up to 3 weeks or freeze for up to 1 year. Serve with ice cream.
