Notes
How to make your own raspberry sauce:
2 cups frozen raspberries3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp lemon juice
1/4 cup water
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon butter If you want to make your own raspberry sauce and not use the canned type, you can add the raspberries to a saucepan, along with sugar, lemon juice and water. Once the raspberries start popping (3-4 minutes), mix the water with cornstarch and stir into the berries. Once heated through and bubbly, add the butter. Cook until the sauce thickens, which just takes a minute or two. Remove from heat and let cool. Reposted from December 2021.
