Making a strawberry filling that you can use on cakes and pies is super easy. All you need are some strawberries, sugar, cornstarch and water.
Ingredients Needed:
4 cups strawberries
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water
Directions:
Start by washing and slicing the strawberries in half. Put them in a saucepan and add the sugar. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Turn down the temperature to medium low and let the mixture boil until the strawberries are well softened.
In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch and water until it is smooth.
Add to the strawberry mixture and boil for about one more minute. Let it cool before using.
