From the kitchen of One Perfect Bite...I keep this lovely sauce in my refrigerator during the summer months. I think of it as a secret weapon and use it to turn the simplest of desserts into something really special. I keep a supply of vanilla ice cream in the freezer, and when it's topped with this gorgeous sauce I know I have a treat that can be served to unexpected guests without fuss or bother. It's very easy to make and, despite its simplicity, it has been well-received ever since its publication in Light and Tasty Magazine. I hope you'll give this sauce a try. I'm really proud of it. Here's the recipe.
