Strawberries To Die For With Cointreau Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Tip the strawberries into a large bowl. Splash over the Cointreau, add the orange zest and sift in the icing sugar, then give everything a really good mix. Cover, then leave for 1 hr or more for the juices to become syrupy and the strawberries to soak up some of the alcohol.
• To serve, scatter the mint leaves over the strawberries and give them one more good stir, then spoon into individual glass dishes.

Steps:

• Wash and hull the strawberries. Pick out the over ripe or very ripe ones.
• Cut strawberries in half and sprinkle the Splenda.
• To make the sauce, roughly chop the remaining strawberries in a blender and blend for about 15 seconds, tossing in the Contreau and 1/2 tbpn of the Splenda. Chill and serve with the choice of light cream or ice cream.

Steps:

• Stir together berries, sugar, salt, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, mashing with a potato masher and stirring frequently. Cook at a low boil, stirring more frequently as mixture thickens, until sauce clings to a spoon, about 10 minutes. Skim foam from top. Let cool completely.

Steps:

• Place the strawberries and Cointreau in a medium bowl and stir until well combined. Cover and place in the fridge for 1-2 hours to macerate.
• Run a vegetable peeler to peel along the long edge of the block of chocolate to make chocolate curls. Set aside until serving.
• To serve, spoon the strawberry mixture into serving bowls. Top with cream and chocolate curls.
