Ingredients
- 250 grams Mascarpone cheese
- 120 ml Heavy cream
- 50 grams Powdered erythritol
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest (optional)
- 1 pinch Salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the mascarpone cheese. Allow it to sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly, making it easier to mix.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, pour the heavy cream and beat it using an electric mixer or whisk until soft peaks form. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
Step 3
Gradually fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone cheese using a spatula. Do this gently to maintain the lightness of the whipped cream.
Step 4
Once combined, sift the powdered erythritol over the mascarpone mixture and continue to fold it in until well incorporated.
Step 5
Add the vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and lemon zest if using. Gently stir to combine the flavors evenly throughout the cream.
Step 6
Chill the mascarpone cream in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the texture to firm up slightly.
Step 7
Serve the sugar-free mascarpone cream as a topping for cakes, pancakes, or enjoy it with fresh berries. It can also be used as a filling for pastries or layered parfaits.
