Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/4 cup sour cream
Directions
- In a saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium-low heat until it reaches a low simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
- Reduce the heat to low and add the sour cream. Stir well to combine.
- Continue simmering the mixture on low heat for 45 minutes to 1 hour, stirring occasionally. The cream will start to thicken and develop a golden crust on the surface.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.
- Using a slotted spoon, carefully remove the clotted cream from the surface of the mixture and transfer it to a clean container. Discard the liquid that remains.
- Cover the container with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the clotted cream to fully set.
- Once chilled, the clotted cream is ready to be served. Enjoy spread on warm scones or biscuits.
