Ingredients
- 2 cups Heavy cream (at least 36% fat)
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
Directions
Step 1
Place the unsalted butter in a small saucepan and melt it over low heat until fully liquid. Be careful not to let it brown or burn.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, pour the heavy cream.
Step 3
Gradually add the melted butter to the heavy cream while whisking continuously. This will help the butter incorporate evenly into the cream.
Step 4
Once the butter and cream are well combined, use a hand mixer or whisk to blend the mixture further until it thickens slightly. The consistency should be velvety and smooth.
Step 5
Transfer the double cream to an airtight container and refrigerate it for at least 2 hours before using. Chilling will help it firm up slightly and achieve the desired richness.
Step 6
Use your homemade double cream within 3 to 4 days for best results. Stir gently before each use.
