Ingredients
Scale
Strawberries
- 1 pound fresh strawberries
Cream Mixture
- 2 cups sour cream
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup evaporated milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Prepare Strawberries: Remove and discard the stems from the strawberries. Slice the fruit into thin slices and transfer them to a medium bowl to set aside.
- Make Cream Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine sour cream, sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk together until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Assemble Dessert: Scoop about ½ cup of sliced strawberries into each of six serving bowls or cups. Then, spoon approximately ½ cup of the cream mixture over the strawberries in each serving.
- Serve or Store: Serve the fresas con crema immediately with a spoon for best freshness. Alternatively, cover and refrigerate for up to 5 days to enjoy chilled.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor.
- If desired, lightly macerate strawberries with a teaspoon of sugar before assembling for extra sweetness.
- This dessert can be served chilled or at room temperature.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator and consume within 5 days.
- You may substitute regular cream or Greek yogurt for sour cream if preferred, but this will alter the flavor slightly.
