2-Ingredient Raspberry Sauce Recipe -- a perfect topping for ice cream, cheesecake, or brownies! All you need to make this easy recipe is raspberries and white sugar!
It is handy to have recipes for simple sauces like caramel sauce or chocolate sauce or berry sauces on hand for topping a cheesecake or to have on ice cream. They can add to a plainer dessert and make it into something amazing!
This raspberry sauce recipe honestly could not be simpler! Use frozen raspberries if you want to make some in the winter or fresh raspberries in the summer. You may adjust the sugar amount to your liking if you find it too sweet or not sweet enough, but I find ½ cup of sugar is a nice amount for 1 pound of raspberries.
This gorgeous, ruby-red raspberry sauce will brighten any dessert with a summery pop of colour even on these drab winter days! Just look at that rich colour! Perfect for a beautiful Valentine's Day dessert!
Keep your eyes open for a fantastic recipe to use this raspberry sauce for coming out next week!! Can you guess what it will be? Hint: It's a great recipe for Valentine's Day!
