This whipped mascarpone comes together with just a few pantry staples, yielding a rich, creamy spread with a touch of vanilla sweetness. It pairs well with fresh berries, pound cake, or crostini, and works equally well as a dessert dip or a topping for warm desserts.
Ingredients
- 16 ounces mascarpone cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt
Method
-
In a medium bowl, combine the softened mascarpone, powdered sugar, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt.
-
Whisk by hand or with a hand mixer on low speed until smooth, light, and well combined, about 2 minutes. Avoid overmixing, as mascarpone can thin out or separate if beaten too long.
-
Taste and adjust sweetness if desired, then transfer to a serving bowl. Cover and chill for at least 15 minutes before serving to let the flavors settle.
