Instructions

  1. Make sure the mixing bowl and heavy cream are cold to ensure the proper whipping.
  2. Add the mascarpone or cream cheese into a bowl. Whip for 1 minute, scraping the sides of the bowl.
  3. Pour in heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract and whip until soft peaks form. If you want a stiffer filling or frosting, whip for longer or add in 1/4 cup more powdered sugar.
  4. Taste for sweetness and add more if needed. Refrigerate if not used right away. Spread on cakes as frosting, as a cake filling, as a filling for pastry or any type of dessert.

Notes

  • This is slightly sweeter than mascarpone cream or creme miracle they use in France. You can reduce the sugar if you want a less sweet cream.
  • Can I use cream cheese instead of mascarpone cheese?
  • Absolutely! I would suggest bringing the cream cheese to room temperature so it is soft enough to cream together. If not, you may end up with a lumpy cream filling.
  • What can I use this mascarpone cake filling for?You can use this mascarpone cream in just about anything! It is perfect as a cake filling, as frosting, as a cream on top of a dessert, to fill a pastry with, in a fruit tart, and so many more.
