4 Simple Ingredients

These ingredients are simple and easy to find. Here’s what you’ll need:

Mascarpone Cheese – You can find mascarpone cheese at your local grocery store. It’s often found in the specialty cheese section, near the soft cheeses.

Heavy Whipping Cream – The heavy whipping cream helps the topping hold together without masking the delicious and distinct flavor of the mascarpone cheese. Don’t have heavy whipping cream on hand? You can also use full-fat coconut milk!

Powdered Sugar – The powdered sugar sweetness this recipe to perfection and helps hold the whipped cream texture.

Pure Vanilla – The right amount of vanilla adds just a touch of flavor that truly brings this recipe to life!

How to Make Mascarpone Whipped Cream

Making Mascarpone Whipped Cream is actually incredibly easy and only takes a few minutes! Here’s how to make this recipe:

  1. Use an electric beater to whip the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla together until it thickens and peaks begin to form.
  2. Add in the softened mascarpone cheese and continue to beat the mixture until stiff peaks form.

That’s it – it’s so easy!

Tips for the Best Mascarpone Whipped Cream

  • Add this whipped cream to french toast for a next-level brunch idea!
  • It’s best to use mascarpone cheese that’s been softened at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes but is still slightly cold or chilled.
  • Use an electric beater at high speed for the best results!
  • Simply dollop the whipped cream over any favorite dessert, or use a piping bag or whipped cream dispenser to give it a beautiful look!

How to Store

While this whipped cream is best served fresh, it can also be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days in an airtight container!
