OFFICIALKIDSMAG.COM KIDS IN THE KITCHEN Strawberry Recipes Strawberry Syrup This super easy strawberry syrup is great on waffles or pancakes, yo- gurt, ice cream, angel food cake or biscuits for strawberry short cake. • 1 pint of strawberries • 1/4 cup of sugar Wash the strawberries and remove the green tops. Slice the strawberries and place them in a bowl. Toss them with the sugar and cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or even overnight. The sugar and berries will naturally make a sweet strawberry syrup.
