Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams cloudberries (fresh or thawed if frozen)
- 250 ml heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
- 5 leaves fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, rinse the cloudberries gently with cold water if fresh. If using frozen cloudberries, allow them to thaw completely and drain any excess liquid.
In a large mixing bowl, pour the heavy cream. Add the powdered sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract.
Whip the cream mixture using a hand mixer or whisk until it forms soft peaks. Be careful not to overwhip the cream.
Set aside about 50 grams of cloudberries for garnishing. Gently fold the remaining cloudberries into the whipped cream using a rubber spatula to combine evenly without deflating the cream.
Divide the multekrem evenly into serving bowls or glasses, layering additional whole cloudberries on top as a garnish.
Chill the dessert for 15-20 minutes in the refrigerator (optional, for a firmer texture).
Serve cold, garnished with fresh mint leaves for an extra touch of color and freshness.
