Swedish Cream

This is our quick version of Swedish Cream; whipped cream and sour cream together with sugar and berries or fruit. Perfect for summer desserts or brunch treats. It is creamy and a little more substantial than whipped cream.

Swedish Cream

This recipe will easily serve 6 or 8 for dessert. Add more or less sugar, depending on your preference. We like this combination and it can easily rest covered in the refrigerator for hours before serving. It will set a bit and be even better if it rests.
