Mascarpone Cream
Report
Mascarpone cream is perfect to serve with your desserts for a touch of elegance. Richer and more stable than whipped cream, and it's made in just 5 minutes.

Instructions
- Place all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl, or the bowl of a stand mixer.
- Using a hand mixer or stand mixer with a whisk attachment, beat until combined and the mixture reaches firm peaks (see my notes).
- Then importantly don't mix any further (or it will split) and use immediately or refrigerate until needed (but don't mix again when serving).
Notes
- *Please note that the amount of calories per serving and nutrition information is provided as a guide only, as ingredients and cooking methods can vary greatly*
- Drain off any liquid that may be sitting on top of the mascarpone.
- For the best result use the cream and mascarpone straight from the fridge.
- Putting the mixing bowl and the beater/s in the freezer for 10 minutes before you start will help keep the mixture cold.
- Whipping the cream - the first stage is soft peaks. This is when the mixture holds its shape briefly but then falls back into the cream. The second stage is firm/stiff peaks, this is where the cream will hold its shape. Warning! Overmixing at this stage will make the cream go grainy, then you are on your way to butter.
- Depending on the speed at which the mixture is being whipped, the difference between the two stages can be seconds! As soon as the mascarpone mixture starts to thicken, I recommend checking every few seconds by stopping and lifting out the mixer before continuing.
