Homemade Clotted Cream

Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes

This is a recipe for easy homemade faux clotted cream to serve on top of scones! This recipe mimics traditional clotted cream and is very thick, creamy, slightly sweet, and tangy! 

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup (4 fl oz, 118 ml) heavy cream, double cream, or whipping cream, cold
  • 1 TBSP (8 gr) powdered sugar, confectioner's sugar, or 10x sugar
  • 1- 8oz container (226 gr) mascarpone cheese or cream cheese, at room temperature

Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer or a large bowl with a hand mixer, whip the cream to soft peaks.
  2. Add the powdered sugar and the mascarpone cheese to the bowl and beat until combined and fluffy. Do not beat too much or it will start turning into butter.
  3. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Allow to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving for the best texture.
