Step-by-step cooking
Step 1:
Prepare all the ingredients in advance so that they are at room temperature.
Step 2:
Mix cream and sour cream. You need to take the dishes right away, with which you can organize a steam bath.
Step 3:
Gradually pour in the milk, mix until smooth.
Step 4:
Of course, you can immediately pour everything into a saucepan and mix, however, lumps may remain, and we need a perfectly homogeneous mixture.
Step 5:
Put the mixture in a place without drafts, warm, but not hot. I put it in the corner on a wooden board and cover it with a towel. It is important that the mixture is not shaken, so remove it from children.
Step 6:
We need this result. In 4-7 hours, the mixture will become slightly jelly-like and slightly firm. I moved it a little so that it could be seen how it cracks at the edge.
Step 7:
Build a steam bath. I put a grill in the pan, pour water below the level of the grill, and put a saucepan with the future cream cheese on the grill.
Step 8:
Warm in the bath until the serum begins to separate. You can make several incisions with a knife to the full depth, but do not interfere. If you move the saucepan a little, we see that the pieces of mass begin to float in the serum. At this moment, we remove it from the bath, wrap it up and leave it for 8-10 hours.
Step 9:
When the time has passed, it turns out almost ready cream cheese.
Step 10:
We fold it on a thick cloth and hang it over the bowl.
Step 11:
When the serum stops dripping, we remove it. It takes me 3-4 hours.
Step 12:
It turns out 400-550 ml of serum and 400-500 g of cream cheese. The yield depends on the fat content and quality of the initial products. Such a cream cheese after light stirring. In the refrigerator, it freezes and becomes thick.
Step 13:
And so wonderful is the cream for cake or cupcakes. You just need to mix it with powdered sugar.
As for the fat content of the ingredients, it can be any for this recipe. From low-fat products, a light cream cheese is obtained, but delicious. And from fatty homemade dairy products - rich and dense, but also delicious. Therefore, this moment is on you.
It was for this recipe that 4% milk, 23% cream and 25% sour cream were used. Ideally, take everything from one company, but this is not necessary.
There are many recipes for cream cheese cream. For homemade simple cakes, a cream of cream cheese, fatty sour cream and powdered sugar with vanilla is ideal. And in cakes where a stable cream is needed, or for cupcakes, whipped cream and butter are taken in a pair with cream cheese.
Cook with love! Bon appetit!
