Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup Heavy cream
  • 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons White vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Honey
  • 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh chives, finely chopped

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the heavy cream and whisk until it begins to thicken slightly. This should take about 1-2 minutes.

Step 2

Add the mayonnaise to the bowl and whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Pour in the white vinegar and lemon juice, and whisk again to incorporate these ingredients fully.

Step 4

Add the Dijon mustard and honey to the bowl. Whisk until the flavors are well blended into the cream mixture.

Step 5

Sprinkle the garlic powder, salt, and black pepper over the mixture. Whisk to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed throughout the dressing.

Step 6

Finally, add the finely chopped fresh chives to the dressing. Stir gently to incorporate the chives without overly agitating the mixture, preserving the creamy texture.

Step 7

Taste the dressing and adjust the seasoning if needed. You can add more salt, pepper, or honey based on your taste preference.

Step 8

Transfer the cream dressing to a jar or airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Shake well before each use.
