Berries: You can use fresh or frozen raspberries for this recipe, or a combination of the two. You can use different fruit varieties as well, blueberries, blackberries, strawberries… they’ll all taste good! Feel free to add even more raspberries at the end if you want more.
Storing: Keep your sauce stored in an airtight container in the fridge and you can expect it to last about a week. I like using a mason jar with fitted lid and rim to contain it because it’s airtight and easy to pour or scoop from but feel free to use any airtight container that you like!
Freezing: While I’ve never tried, you should be able to freeze and thaw this sauce just fine. Just make sure that the airtight container of choice is also freezer friendly and you should be good to go. Freeze it for up to 3 months and thaw it by placing the sauce in the fridge overnight. You can always reheat it on the stove to warm it up if you’d like to serve it warm.
Trouble thickening the sauce? The cornstarch slurry that we made should be good enough to thicken your sauce up pretty well. If you notice your sauce isn’t thickening as you want it to, turn the heat up just a little bit (not much) and boil for a little longer. The cornstarch needs heat to activate and you will also notice that the sauce continues to thicken as it cools, so patience could also be key to a great consistency.
Be sure to stir while cooking the sauce so you don’t get sticking and burning.
You can serve this sauce cold or hot.
Serve this raspberry sauce on cheesecake, brownies, ice cream, pizookies, pancakes, waffles, etc.
Serve this raspberry sauce as a filling for chocolate cake or chocolate cupcakes, toaster strudels, doughnuts, and so much more!

This sauce is amazing! I grow my own raspberries and end up with more than I can eat so I was looking for something to make with them. Now this is all I want to make and it is delicious. I stray from the recipe from time to time I like a little less vanilla I also spread the raspberries on a plate, sprinkle sugar on them cover and refrigerate the night before it really sweetens them up. Thanks for the recipe my family and I love it!
This sauce is to die for and my husband can't eat his waffles, pancakes, French toast or scones without it now! I'd love to try it over ice cream or cheesecake next!
Wowza! This sauce is goooood!! We served the raspberry sauce over ice cream and everyone loved it.
