Mock Clotted Cream

Real clotted cream calls for unpasteurized milk which is difficult to find today. This is a substitute that will work, though nothing is quite the same as real clotted cream.

• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons confectioners sugar

METHOD

Mix together sour cream and vanilla.

Beat cream in a cooled bowl. When cream forms into medium- stiff peaks, sprinkle on sugar and continue to beat. When sugar is integrated and peaks are stiff, gently fold in the sour cream/vanilla mixture.

Serve with scones.
