"This recipe was developed and tested using frozen strawberries that I keep in my freezer from my summer’s crop, adjust the sugar to taste start with one cup and add in more if needed, this has not been tested using Splenda so I cannot say if it would work. Plan ahead the sauce needs to cool in the refrigerator before using which will take about 5 hours or more With amounts listed I got just over 4 cups, you can reduce the recipe by half if desired. Prep time does not include thawing the strawberries"
