Ingredients for Berry Cream Fluff

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