Equipment

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup of sour cream
  • 3-6 Tablespoons of Powdered Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  • Whip whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form.
  • Fold in the sour cream.
  • Keep cold until ready to serve.

Notes

Storage & Freezing
Store Devonshire cream in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2–3 days. Give it a gentle stir before serving if any separation occurs.
Freezing is not recommended. Because this recipe is made with whipped cream and sour cream, the texture can become grainy and separate once thawed, losing its smooth and creamy consistency. For the best flavor and texture, enjoy it fresh.
