10 min • 4 to 6 servings •
Sheila B.
Whipped cream topped with fresh strawberry pieces in a white bowl on a wooden table, with a whisk and more strawberries in the background.

Sweet and delicious strawberries are in full season in garden and here is a the simplest of desserts for a warm summer evening. When I was a child we would take turns whisking the cream. The anticipation was sheer delight. Now I use a mixer. It tastes almost as good as the memory.

Ready

  • Strawberries, fresh picked and roughly cut
  • Cream, 1 pint
  • Confectioners sugar, 2 Tbsp
  • Vanilla, ½ tsp

    • Set

  • Mixer
  • or old fashioned hand powered balloon whisk and bowl

    • Go!

  • Pick a bunch of strawberries.
  • Roughly cut them into bite sized pieces.
  • Set aside
  • Add cream, sugar, and vanilla to mixer. To prevent splatter, slowly bring the mixer to high speed.
  • Mix until cream becomes nice and firm. (about 3 minutes)
  • If you are using a whisk, whisk at a constant speed until cream thickens. (about 5 – 10 minutes)
  • Add cream to serving bowls and sprinkle strawberries on top.
  • Serve and enjoy!
