Ingredients
– 1 lb rhubarb
– 2 stalks rhubarb
– 1/2 cup sugar
– 1/4 cup water
– 2 pints strawberries
– 4 shortbread cookies (optional)
– Ice cream (quantity as needed for serving)
Instructions
1-Remove hulls and stems from the strawberries, then cut them into quarters to get them ready for cooking.
2-Cut the rhubarb into half-inch pieces so it cooks evenly and blends well with other flavors.
3-In a large saucepan, mix the strawberries, rhubarb pieces, sugar, and water to start building that sweet sauce.
4-Bring the mixture to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 8 minutes, stirring now and then to keep it smooth.
5-Refrigerate the sauce until itβs fully cooled, which helps it thicken and taste even better.
6-Scoop ice cream into your serving dishes to create the base of your sundae.
7-Top the ice cream with the cooled rhubarb sauce for that perfect sweet-tart combo.
8-Add a shortbread cookie to each serving if you want an extra crunch.
