Name: Strawberry Ice Cream Sauce
Total time: PLACEHOLDER
Ingredients: 16 ounces (454 grams) frozen strawberries , coarsely chopped; 1/2 cup (3½ ounces/99 grams) sugar; 1 cup strawberry jam; 2 tablespoons lemon juice

Why This Recipe Works

We wanted a thick Strawberry Sauce that could be spooned over ice cream. We recommend using frozen berries. We added sugar and strawberry jam to the berries to create a thick sauce. And we stirred the berries gently as they cooked—we wanted our Strawberry Sauce to maintain large chunks of fruit.

Before You Begin

Jam gives this sauce a thick, glossy sheen. This recipe makes a lot of sauce, but it can easily be cut in half.

Instructions

Bring strawberries, jam, sugar, and lemon juice to boil in medium saucepan over medium heat. Simmer until sauce coats back of spoon, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and cool until sauce begins to thicken, at least 30 minutes. Serve at room temperature.
