Luscious Blackberry Whipped Cream

Indulge in the velvety delight of this luscious blackberry whipped cream, a sweet and tangy topping that transforms any dessert into a masterpiece. With the vibrant color of fresh blackberries and the light, fluffy texture of whipped cream, this treat is not only a feast for the palate but also for the eyes. Traditionally, whipped cream has been enjoyed since the 16th century, but this version with blackberries adds a modern twist that celebrates the seasonal bounty of summer. Perfect for cakes, pies, or even pancakes, it's a versatile dessert that can be savored on its own or as a topping.

Serves 4

Ingredients

Blackberries
1 cup, fresh or frozen
Heavy cream
1 cup, chilled
Powdered sugar
1/4 cup, or to taste
Vanilla extract
1 teaspoon

Instructions

  1. In a blender or food processor, puree the blackberries until smooth. If desired, strain the puree through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds for a smoother texture.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whip the chilled heavy cream using an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped cream, then increase the speed to high and continue whipping until stiff peaks form, approximately 2 more minutes.
  4. Gently fold in the blackberry puree with a spatula until well combined, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
  5. Transfer the blackberry whipped cream to a serving bowl or individual dessert glasses.
  6. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  7. Serve as a delightful topping for desserts such as cakes, pies, or pancakes, or enjoy it on its own as a light and fruity dessert.

Tips

  • 💡 For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of lemon juice to the blackberry puree for a zesty kick.
  • 💡 This whipped cream can be made ahead of time; simply store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • 💡 Try substituting blackberries with other berries like raspberries or strawberries for a different flavor experience.
