Norwegian Cream with Berries Recipe

Introduction

Norwegian Cream is a simple and elegant dessert that highlights the richness of whipped cream combined with the natural sweetness of berries. It’s perfect for a quick treat or a light finish to any meal.

Ingredients

• 1 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Fresh berries for serving (such as blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries)

Instructions

1. Step 1: In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with the sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
2. Step 2: Spoon the whipped cream into serving dishes and top generously with fresh berries.

Tips & Variations

• For extra flavor, add a splash of almond or coffee liqueur to the cream before whipping.
• Use a mix of seasonal berries to enhance color and taste.
• Chill your bowl and beaters beforehand to help the cream whip faster and achieve better volume.

Storage

Norwegian Cream is best served fresh but can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. The whipped cream may lose some volume, so gently re-whip before serving if needed. Do not freeze the dessert as the texture will be compromised.

FAQs

Can I use powdered sugar instead of granulated sugar?

Yes, powdered sugar dissolves more easily and can give a smoother texture to the whipped cream.

What can I substitute if I don’t have vanilla extract?

You can use a small amount of vanilla bean paste or leave it out entirely; the cream and berries will still be delicious.
