Ingredients for Berry Cream Fluff

  • 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
  • 2 cups whipped cream
  • Frozen Raspberries

How to Make Berry Cream Fluff

  1. In a large bowl, beat together 8 ounces of cream cheese and 1/2 cup granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add 1 cup sour cream and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  3. If the mixture becomes too runny, chill in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes to thicken.
  4. Gently fold in 2 cups whipped cream until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Gently fold in 1 cup fresh berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, or a mix!) and 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional).
  6. Divide the mixture into individual serving dishes (martini glasses, small bowls, or ramekins).
  7. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving for optimal consistency.
  8. For a quick serve, freeze for 15 minutes. Note: a semi-solid outer shell may form.
  9. (Variation) For a raspberry swirl, puree 1/2 cup raspberries and add to the mixture before folding in the whipped cream.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
