Ingredients
-
2 cups heavy whipping cream (very cold)
-
1 cup condensed milk (or a sugar-free condensed milk alternative)
-
Optional: Chocolate sprinkles or cocoa powder for the top
Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Prepare for Success: Place a large mixing bowl and your whisk beaters in the freezer for 10 minutes before starting. Having your tools and the heavy cream ice-cold is the secret to getting a thick, stable whip.
-
Whip the Cream: Pour the 2 cups of cold heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl. Using an electric mixer, start on low speed and gradually increase to high. Beat until stiff peaks form—this means when you lift the beaters, the cream stands straight up without drooping.
-
Combine the Ingredients: Pour the 1 cup of condensed milk over the whipped cream.
-
Fold Gently: Using a large spatula, very gently fold the condensed milk into the cream. Move in a slow, circular motion, lifting from the bottom of the bowl to the top. Do not stir vigorously, or you will lose the air that makes the dessert fluffy.
-
Pour and Smooth: Transfer the mixture into a glass serving dish or individual ramekins. Use the back of a spoon to smooth out the surface.
-
Set and Chill: Place the dish in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. This allows the flavors to meld and the texture to firm up into a perfect scoopable consistency.
-
Final Flourish: Right before serving, decorate the top with chocolate sprinkles or a light dusting of cocoa powder as shown in the photo.
Serving Suggestion
For a fruity twist, place a layer of fresh raspberries or sliced strawberries at the bottom of the dish before pouring in the cream mixture.
