Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream
- 1 cup Sugar
- 1 tablespoon Unflavored gelatin
- 0.25 cup Water
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the unflavored gelatin with 1/4 cup of water. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the gelatin to bloom.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and sugar. Stir continuously until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is heated through, but do not let it boil.
Once the cream mixture is hot, remove it from the heat and add the bloomed gelatin. Whisk thoroughly until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
Let the mixture cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming.
Once cooled, whisk in the sour cream and vanilla extract until smooth and fully incorporated.
Pour the mixture into individual serving dishes or a large serving bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until fully set.
Before serving, garnish with fresh berries or other toppings of choice for added flavor and presentation.
