Mock Clotted Cream

So a few years ago when I went to visit my college friend she took me to a teahouse she had visited and knew I would love. She was right, I thought it was beautiful, had great food, and since then have gone back every time I return to that area.

The first time I went was the first time I had ever had clotted cream. I thought it was amazing and that scones were one hundred times better with it. In fact it made me just want to keep eating.

Or scones

Since then every time I make scones I wish I have some clotted cream to go with them.

Well you think, that’s easy-just head to the store.

Majorly

You can’t get it in any store around here. I’ve looked online, but it will take ages and you have to order a ton of it.

So after all that, I decided that I would just try to make my own.

This recipe comes from my sister blog, MysteriousEats.wordpress.com.

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 Cup of Sour Cream (Can substitute with Plain Greek Yogurt)
  • 1/2 Teaspoon of Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 Cup of Heavy Cream
  • 2 Tablespoons of Confectioner’s Sugar (Powdered Sugar)

 

Directions:

  1. Fold vanilla into sour cream (or yogurt).
  2. Beat heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  3. Fold the sugar into the cream.
  4. Fold this mixture into the vanilla/sour cream (yogurt) mixture.

It was delicious and a perfect addition to tea time.
