Strawberry Sauce

Strawberry Sauce

Original recipe from Our Best Bites found HERE

1 pint strawberries

1/3 c. white sugar

1 tsp. almond extract

Wash strawberries and remove stems.

Combine berries, sugar, and extract in medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.

Cook for five minutes, stirring/breaking strawberries up with a wooden spoon (I used a potato masher and skipped the steps below) constantly. After five minutes, remove from heat and allow to cool slightly (if you have a glass blender jar) and a lot (if you have a plastic blender jar).

When cool enough, transfer mixture to blender and pulse until desired consistency is reached.

When ever we eat out for breakfast (which is very rare) I always like to get a Belgian waffle with strawberry fruit topping and whip cream.  I never realized how easy it was to duplicate this and home. (Not to mention even BETTER tasting too!)
