Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 8 lices of soft fluffy white bread - Japanese milk bread, or shokupan, is the traditional bread called for
- Assorted fruits such as strawberries, kiwis, blueberries, blackberries, peaches, apricots, pineapple, pitted cherries, and naval oranges - washed and thoroughly dried
Instructions
- For the whipped cream mixture: In a medium bowl, with an electric mixer, whip heavy cream until stiff. Start out on low to medium speed, then increase to high speed as the mixture thickens.
- In another medium bowl, with same electric mixer (no need to clean the beaters) on medium-high to high speed, beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, until just evenly combined.
- For the fruit sando: Place 4 bread slices on a clean work surface and spread a layer of whipped cream mixture onto each slice.
- Arrange assorted fruits on top of the whipped cream layer, visualizing how the fruit sandwiches will look when they're cut.
- Spread another layer of the whipped cream mixture evenly over the fruit layer, to create an even layer out to the edges of the bread.
- Place a bread slice on top of the whipped cream layer, gently pressing down. Repeat until all 4 fruit sandwiches are made.
- Wrap the fruit sandwiches tightly with plastic wrap and place them on a sheet pan. If desired, use a marker to draw a line where you want to cut the fruit sandwich, to get a pretty design of cut fruit.
- To help the sandwiches hold their shape, place another sheet pan on top of the fruit sandwiches, and add something to evenly weigh down the top sheet pan a bit. Refrigerate the sandwiches for at least an hour to chill and set.
- To serve: Once chilled, remove the plastic wrap and trim off the crusts of the bread slices using a sharp serrated knife, creating clean edges.
- Cut the sandwiches into desired shapes, such as triangles or rectangles. Follow the cut lines if you marked the plastic wrap.
- Serve the fruit sando immediately, or refrigerate for a few hours to allow the flavors to meld together.
