Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream (cold)
- 4 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
1. In a medium mixing bowl, add the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar.
2. Use a hand mixer on medium speed to beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
3. Slowly pour in the cold heavy whipping cream while continuing to beat the mixture on low speed initially to avoid splashing.
4. Gradually increase the mixer speed to high and whip until the mixture forms soft peaks, about 3-5 minutes. Be careful not to overwhip, as it might become grainy.
5. If desired, add the vanilla extract and gently fold it into the cream using a spatula.
6. Transfer the Mock Devonshire Cream into a serving bowl. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before serving.
