Strawberry Sauce

Made this to go with Puffed French Toast - and it was great!!  Figured this would be awesome to drizzle over ice cream, waffles, pancakes, or cheesecake!!  Super easy and yummy!!

Makes 2 cups of sauce - OBB

Ingredients:
1 pint strawberries, washed, hulled, and roughly chopped
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon almond extract or vanilla

Combine berries, sugar, and vanilla in medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.  Cook for five minutes, stirring constantly and breaking strawberries up with a wooden spoon.

After 5 minutes, remove from heat and allow to cool before blending.  When cool enough, transfer the mixture to blender and pulse until desired consistency is reached.  Refrigerate unused sauce for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.
