Roasted Strawberry Sauce Recipe

When I make this delicious Vanilla Cheesecake (that I shared right here with you), my husband, Randy, enjoys topping it with a sauce, like this super easy and equally delectable Roasted Strawberry Sauce. A piece drizzled with this easy Roasted Strawberry Sauce is scrumptious indeed. Cheesecake is one of his very favorite desserts and while Randy enjoys it very much, he specifically likes this strawberry topping. Ripe strawberries, mixed with a smidgen of sugar and a little vanilla extract, then roasted under a bit of heat makes an incredibly easy sauce to use not only on top of cheesecake, but waffles, poundcake, greek yogurt or ice cream sundaes, just to name a few.

It always amazes me how simple ingredients can come together to make something special. And this Roasted Strawberry Sauce is definitely something special! This sauce, made with fresh strawberries, can be prepared in a short 15-20 minutes to enjoy however you like. It can be made ahead and kept refrigerated for up to a week (if it lasts that long).

If you have a bounty of fresh picked strawberries, I recommend going ahead and making a double or triple batch to enjoy or share. It would be a fabulous gift for a friend or a new neighbor along with a simple poundcake. Yum!
