Whether you're looking for a simple yet sophisticated dessert or a crowd-pleasing finale to a meal, Swedish Creme is a timeless choice that will leave everyone wanting more.
In a small bowl, sprinkle the unflavored gelatin over the cold water and let it sit for about 5 minutes to bloom. This step allows the gelatin to soften.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream and granulated sugar. Heat the mixture while stirring occasionally, until the sugar fully dissolves and the cream is hot but not boiling. Remove from heat.
Add the bloomed gelatin to the hot cream mixture and whisk until the gelatin completely dissolves.
Let the mixture cool for about 5 minutes, then whisk in the sour cream and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Pour the Swedish Creme mixture into six small serving dishes or ramekins. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
Once set, you can garnish with fresh berries before serving for an optional touch of color and flavor.
