STRAWBERRY COMPOTE (3 INGREDIENTS!)

Steps:

• Place the strawberries, sugar (and lemon juice if using) in a medium sized saucepan set over medium heat.
• Stir the strawberries to coat them in sugar and gently mash the strawberries, just until they begin to release a bit of liquid.
• Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook the berries for 8-10 minutes, stirring often, or until the compote is your desired thickness.
• Allow the compote to cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container.

STRAWBERRIES ROMANOFF RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large bowl, combine strawberry and orange liqueurs, cognac and lemon juice, and up to 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar if berries are not sweet.
• Reserve 8 whole strawberries for garnish. Hull the remaining strawberries and cut them in half. Marinate the halves in the liqueur mixture at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
• In a large bowl, soften 2 pints of the vanilla ice cream and then carefully fold in the whipped cream. Carefully fold in the marinated strawberries, leaving the liquid behind. (If desired, you can drizzle this on top of the finished dessert or drink it.)
• Place a small scoop of the remaining 1 pint of vanilla ice cream in the bottom of 8 large stemmed glasses. Fill the glasses with the strawberry ice cream and whipped cream mixture.
• Garnish with one of the reserved whole strawberries and a mint sprig. Sprinkle with brown sugar or confectioners' sugar, if desired. Serve immediately.
