Fresh Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup milk (whole or your choice)
Sweeteners
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Prepare Strawberries: In a medium bowl, wash and hull the strawberries, then slice them into small pieces to ensure they blend smoothly within the creamer.
- Mix Cream Base: In a separate bowl, combine the heavy cream and sweetened condensed milk, stirring until the mixture becomes smooth and uniform.
- Add Flavoring: Add the pure vanilla extract into the cream mixture and mix thoroughly to enhance the sweetness and aroma.
- Incorporate Strawberries: Gently fold the sliced strawberries into the cream mixture, making sure they are evenly distributed without breaking them down too much.
- Chill the Creamer: Transfer the creamer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the creamer to thicken before using.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor infusion.
- The creamer should be stored in the refrigerator and consumed within one week for optimal freshness.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of sweetened condensed milk according to taste.
- Shake or stir well before each use as natural separation may occur.
- This creamer works well with hot or iced coffee.
