Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Cloudberries (fresh or frozen)
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 250 ml Heavy cream (cold)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 15 grams Powdered sugar
- 50 grams Cloudberries (for garnish, optional)
- 4 leaves Fresh mint leaves (for garnish, optional)
Instructions
If using frozen cloudberries, allow them to thaw completely at room temperature before beginning.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the cloudberries and granulated sugar.
Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring gently, until the berries release their juices and the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool completely.
While the cloudberry mixture is cooling, pour the cold heavy cream into a mixing bowl.
Add the vanilla extract and powdered sugar to the cream.
Using a hand mixer or a whisk, whip the cream until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Once the cloudberry mixture is cool, gently fold half of it into the whipped cream. This will create a marbled effect and flavor the cream lightly.
Divide the remaining cloudberry mixture evenly into four serving glasses or bowls.
Top the cloudberry layer with the whipped cream mixture.
If desired, garnish each serving with a few whole cloudberries and a fresh mint leaf for an elegant presentation.
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
