- 2 cups or 16oz(480ml) heavy whipping cream
- 1 & 1/2 cup or 12oz(360ml) sour cream or yogurt
- 1/2 cup powdered or confectioners sugar
- 3 cups fruits fresh or canned
- 3/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans roughly chopped
- Pinch salt
-
Add the heavy whipping cream + sour cream + sugar + salt into a bowl and mix well. (Taste and adjust the sweetness as needed.) You can also add a dash of vanilla extract.
-
Fold in the fruits with a spatula and transfer into a serving bowl, sprinkle with chopped walnuts, cover, and refrigerate for an hour or two. (Alternately you can also layer the fruits and the cream)
-
(optional) Garnish with berries or pomegranate seeds.
I love the canned mandarin oranges with a mix of fresh fruits.
Pineapple, mangoes, pear, grapes, apples, pomegranate are a few of the other options. Some people prefer banana, jello pieces, and marshmallows too.
If you are making a big batch, you get big cans of tropical fruits in syrup at Bjs and similar wholesale stores.
If using canned fruits, drain the fruits from the syrup well before adding to the cream.
