Ingredients
1 Cup Heavy Cream
1/2 Cup Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/4 Cup Cream Cheese, softened
1 Teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Optional Toppings: Fresh berries, chocolate shavings, crushed cookies, or caramel drizzle
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Whip the Cream
Use a chilled mixing bowl for best results.
Add the heavy cream and whip it with a hand mixer or whisk until soft peaks form. This process incorporates air, making the cream light and fluffy.
Step 2: Blend the Base
In a separate bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract.
Whisk or beat the mixture until it’s smooth, creamy, and lump-free.
Tip: Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature to ensure a silky consistency.
Step 3: Fold the Mixtures Together
Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Use a spatula and work gently to preserve the airy texture.
Ensure the two mixtures are fully incorporated, resulting in a light and fluffy dessert base.
Step 4: Serve and Garnish
Spoon the creamy mixture into individual serving glasses or bowls.
Add your choice of toppings, such as fresh berries, chocolate shavings, crushed cookies, or caramel drizzle.
Tips for Recipe Success
Chill the Bowls and Tools: Using cold tools helps the cream whip faster and stay stable.
Choose High-Quality Vanilla Extract: This enhances the overall flavor of the dessert.
Experiment with Toppings: Try toasted nuts, fruit compote, or even a sprinkle of sea salt for a gourmet touch.
Make Ahead: You can prepare this dessert a few hours in advance and store it in the fridge. Just add the toppings before serving.
Serving Suggestions
