Ingredients
- 2/3 cup whole milk (preferably full-fat)
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter (melted)
Instructions
- Melt the butter: Gently melt the unsalted butter in a saucepan over low heat until fully liquefied but not browned. Allow it to cool slightly.
- Combine with milk: Pour the melted butter into a blender or mixing bowl. Add the whole milk to the melted butter.
- Blend thoroughly: Using a blender or an immersion blender, blend the mixture on medium speed for about 30 seconds to 1 minute until the mixture thickens and emulsifies, resembling heavy cream consistency.
- Chill before use: Transfer the homemade heavy whipping cream to a container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up. Use as you would regular heavy cream.
Notes
- Use full-fat whole milk and unsalted butter for the best creamy texture and flavor.
- Ensure the melted butter is not too hot when mixing to prevent curdling.
- This homemade cream works great for cooking and baking but may not whip exactly like store-bought heavy cream.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in a sealed container.
