Tasty Tuesdays: Strawberries & Whipped Cream

March 17, 2015

My husband is pretty cute. And I’m pretty lucky, because he’s an excellent hand in the kitchen. Not only that, BUT his mom is an incredible cook in the kitchen! Do you know what that means? That means Jordan will every now and then (if he likes it), make a recipe of hers for…us! Yes, typically these recipes are desserts. 😉

Last week when we met up with some friends of ours, Dawson and Allison, Jordan had prepared strawberries and cream for us to take with us. Um…thanks babe! You’re a keeper! And this week, he decided to make it for us. I’m not going to lie, the cream is incredible.

Because I’ve been hitting my books hard this week, I decided that I’d take some picture of Jordan making some strawberries and cream for us, and use it for my Tasty Tuesday recipe. Why? Because I was semi desperate, and he was already at it! Why else? Because it’s EASY, and this warm weather is just screaming STRAWBERRIES AND CREAM! So you’re welcome!

So I’m going to keep it at that. Here is the recipe!! And it’s going to be a little different this week…

I’m going to humor Jordan and share the recipe with you exactly how he explained it to me.

Strawberries and Cream

“1 carton of cold, heavy cream, a splash of vanilla and 1 cup of sugar…..or 2 cups”. -Jordan

So I’m going to assume to start with 1 cup, and add to your liking! You can see in the picture, the size of our cream carton, also!

First, chill the bowl in which you’ll be mixing the 3 ingredients. Pour in cream, add vanilla, and beat in the sugar gradually until it thickens. Last quote from Jordan, “it’s done when you can lift up the beater, and the cream stands straight in the air”.
