1 lb strawberries, quartered
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 quart (or 2 pints) good quality vanilla ice cream, softened
1 cup chopped (1/2-inch pieces) shortbread cookies
2 cups sliced strawberries
Whipped cream
6 shortbread cookies
Directions
- Stir together berries, sugar, corn syrup and salt in a saucepan over high heat. Bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium and cook at a low boil, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and let cool for 15 minutes. In a blender, puree the sauce until smooth. Chill for 1 hour or until cold.
- In a large bowl, combine the ice cream and the chopped cookies. Gently fold to combine. Drizzle 3/4 cup of the sauce over the ice cream. Using a large rubber spatula, briefly fold in the sauce, leaving big swirls. Spoon the ice cream into a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan. Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 2 hours.
- Scoop ice cream into cups or bowls. Top with remaining strawberry sauce, whipped cream and a shortbread cookie.
