Fruit Topped Almond Cream Ingredients

Milk: To give this the perfect consistency add in 1 1/2 cups of milk.
Whipping cream: Using 1 cup of heavy whipping cream will give this a mousse like texture and taste incredible.
Almond extract: Add in 1 1/2 teaspoons of almond extract to give this cream wonderful flavor.
Fruit: Top this fresh and light cream with 3 cups sliced fresh fruit, 3 cups will suffice for the 8 servings the cream yields. I used strawberries, blueberries and kiwi for this recipe.
Sliced almonds (optional): For a nice added crunch, add some sliced almonds to top this dish off.
Easy step by step on how to make Almond Cream
In a medium size bowl, begin by whisking together the dry pudding mix with the milk and set aside.
Then in a separate bowl, using an electric handheld mixer, mix the heavy whipping cream and almond extract for about 5 minutes, until stiff peaks form.
Next, give the pudding another whisk to make sure it is nice and smooth, then combine the whipping cream and pudding and stir to combine. After that, place the mixture in the fridge for about 10-15 minutes.
When the cream has chilled, proceed to spoon or pipe the cream into small bowls, then top with fresh fruit and sliced almonds. Serve immediately and enjoy!
