How to Make Sweetened Whipped Cream Fraiche

  1. Place 1 cup heavy whipping cream and ½ cup full-fat sour cream in the freezer for 5 minutes to chill thoroughly (be careful not to freeze).
  2. In a large chilled bowl, combine the chilled heavy whipping cream, chilled sour cream, ⅓ cup powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Using an electric mixer (stand mixer with whisk attachment recommended), beat on medium speed until soft peaks form. If using a hand mixer, this may take several minutes.
  4. Gradually increase the speed to high and continue beating until stiff peaks form and the mixture is thick and fluffy.
  5. Gently fold in 2 tablespoons of your favorite fruit preserves (optional, for added flavor).
  6. Serve immediately or store any leftover fraiche in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
