BLUEBERRY SAUCE

The other day my husband brought home a few pints of blueberries....said they were a good buy at the supermarket. Well....my daughter doesn't like them and either does my husband. I already had eaten almost 2 pints........didn't want to waste them so I made some sauce to go with a cheesecake that I had baked.


Now my husband and daughter pour that blueberry syrup over the cheesecake and it is almost gone...won't eat fresh but love the sauce.

My favourite is this sauce over cheese blintzes...yummmm, or even over some pound cake or ice cream.

•2 cups fresh blueberries
•1/3 cup sugar
•1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Wash and crush blueberries; add sugar, lemon juice and salt.

Mix well. In a small saucepan, bring blueberry mixture to a boil; boil 1 minute.

Add vanilla.......... Chill.



Serve over puddings, cake, or ice cream.
 
*****I added a pinch of cinnamon and a teaspoon of corn syrup, made it even more rich tasting.

  1. Sounds wonderful, I love blueberries, as do all my family. A bargain that tastes good is a double bonus.
