Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Confectioners' sugar
Instructions
Chill a medium-sized mixing bowl and the whisk attachment of your mixer in the refrigerator for 10 minutes. This will help the cream whip faster and achieve a better texture.
Pour the heavy cream into the chilled bowl.
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, begin whipping the cream until it starts to thicken slightly.
Add the unsalted butter and confectioners' sugar to the cream, continuing to whip on medium speed. Ensure the ingredients are well incorporated.
Increase the speed to high and whip until soft peaks form. The cream should be smooth, fluffy, and slightly stiff but not over-whipped.
Transfer the Devonshire cream to a serving dish. It is now ready to enjoy with scones, jam, and tea.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
