Instructions

In a medium saucepan, combine 4 cups of sliced strawberries and granulated sugar over medium-high heat.
Allow the mixture to boil and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until the sugar dissolves and a strawberry syrup forms.
Remove from heat and blend the sauce until smooth using a blender or food processor.
Transfer the strawberry puree to a bowl and mix in the remaining sliced strawberries.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate the sauce while preparing the rolls.

Notes

Ensure strawberries are fresh for optimal flavor.
Chill the sauce well for a refreshing contrast to the warm rolls.
Experiment with different jams if desired.
