How to Make Swedish Dried Fruit Cream
- Combine 1 cup mixed dried fruits and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until the fruit is tender, about 15 minutes.
- Stir in 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 teaspoon ground mace. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water until smooth.
- Gradually whisk the cornstarch slurry into the fruit mixture.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens to a creamy consistency (about 2-3 minutes). Be careful not to break up the fruit.
- Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or preferably longer, to allow the flavors to meld.
- Serve chilled, as is, or topped with whipped cream, custard, or pudding.
