4 oz. weight Cream Cheese, At Room Temperature

FAUX CLOTTED CREAM

Since clotted cream was banned on import due to mad cow disease, I found a great substitute for it! A tea house I went to one time shared this with me and I've made it ever since. Some people call this Devonshire cream I think.

Categories     Spreads

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 ounce(s) cream cheese, room temperature
1 tablespoon(s) regular granulated sugar
1/8 teaspoon(s) salt
1 cup(s) whipping cream

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine all but the whipping cream. Stir well.
  • Add unwhipped whipping cream.
  • Beat with a mixer until it's stiff. It should have the texture of bowl margarine or softened butter. Store in refrigerator. (But there won't be any left to store!) I've never used anything but whipping cream for this recipe and also always use brand name of Philadelphia Cream Cheese. I tried the store brand once and it didn't taste as rich. I don't think cool whip would work with this recipe, either.

CHEF JOHN'S CLOTTED CREAM



Chef John's Clotted Cream image

While the name doesn't exactly make the mouth water, the flavor and texture of clotted cream are the stuff of legends. The long, slow cooking sort of toasts the cream, which imparts a sweet, nuttiness that I don't think I've tasted in any other preparation. This is just delicious spread on warm biscuits or scones and topped with homemade jam.

Steps:

  • Set a coffee filter basket, lined with a filter, in a strainer, over a bowl. Pour the cream almost to the top of the filter. Refrigerate for 2 hours.

Scrape this down with a rubber spatula and repeat every couple of hours until the mass reaches the consistency of soft cream cheese.

MOCK CLOTTED CREAM



Mock Clotted Cream image

I've been using this one since found online a few years back. Nothing can replace true clotted cream but still, this is a very good substitute.

Provided by Julie Bs Hive

Categories     Low Protein

Time 10m

Yield 1 cup

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Fold vanilla into sour cream. Beat heavy cream until stiff peaks form the fold in the sugar. Fold this mixture into the sour cream/vanilla mixture.

Tips:

  • To make the best clotted cream, use full-fat milk with a fat content of at least 4%.
  • The ideal temperature for making clotted cream is between 80°C and 85°C (176°F and 185°F). If the milk is too hot, the cream will curdle. If the milk is too cold, the cream will not form.
  • Do not stir or shake the milk while it is heating or cooling. This will prevent the cream from forming.
  • Allow the clotted cream to cool completely before refrigerating. This will help the cream to set properly.
  • Clotted cream can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 10 days.

Conclusion:

Making clotted cream at home is a simple and rewarding process. With a little patience and attention to detail, you can create a delicious and versatile cream that can be enjoyed in a variety of ways. Whether you spread it on scones, dollop it on fruit, or use it as a base for desserts, clotted cream is sure to please. So next time you have some extra time, give this recipe a try and see for yourself how easy it is to make this classic British treat.
