Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams mascarpone cheese
- 30 grams powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, add the mascarpone cheese. Ensure it is at room temperature for easier mixing.
Sift the powdered sugar over the mascarpone cheese to avoid any lumps.
Add the vanilla extract, honey, and lemon zest to the bowl.
Using a hand whisk or a spatula, gently mix all the ingredients together until smooth and well-combined. Avoid overmixing as it can make the mascarpone runny.
Taste the spread and adjust sweetness by adding a little more honey if desired.
Transfer the sweet mascarpone spread to a serving bowl. If not using immediately, cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
Serve the spread with warm toast, fresh fruits like berries or apple slices, or use as a frosting or filling for desserts.
