“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 1-½ cups of the mashed strawberries with 1-½ cups mashed raspberries instead.” Peggy Townsend – Florence, Colorado

Ingredients

2	quarts fresh strawberries
6	cups sugar
1	pouch (3 ounces) liquid fruit pectin
⅓	cup chocolate syrup
⅓	cup raspberry liqueur, optional
	Vanilla ice cream

Directions

•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. • 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. Yield: 8 cups.
