Recreate the delicious mascarpone whipped cream from popular food truck Waffle Love with this easy copycat recipe. Perfect for topping off your homemade waffles!
I originally was looking to make a thicker, creamier whipped cream to accompany our Liege Waffles, or as you all know them, Waffle Love waffles, and while I did just that, I also threw in some clear vanilla and my goodness, it took the taste to a whole new level!!! 4 ingredients is all you need!
Ingredients for Mascarpone Whipped Cream
You won’t believe that it only takes 4 ingredients to make this tasty dessert topping! Adding mascarpone to the whipped cream helps stabilize it. We have a stabilized whipped cream recipe already on the blog, but if you don’t want to mess with gelatin, try mascarpone instead! Here is what you will need:
- Heavy Whipping Cream: you’ll need a pint of whipping cream to make this recipe
- Clear Vanilla Extract: A splash of vanilla is essential in this whipped cream and the clear vanilla makes helps it stay bright white.
- If you don’t have clear vanilla, regular vanilla extract will work fine.
- Powdered Sugar: also called confectioners’ sugar
- Mascarpone: can be found in the grocery store near the ricotta cheese or cream cheese
The measurements of each ingredient can be found in the recipe card at the end of the post.
What is Mascarpone Cheese?
Mascarpone is an Italian soft cheese made from cow’s milk and coagulated with an acid of some kind. It’s like Italian cream cheese. It is extra creamy and velvety in texture has the most dreamy flavor. It is similar to cream cheese but more sweet. You can find it at the grocery store near the cream cheese in a small white container usually.
How to Make Mascarpone Whipped Cream Recipe
If you thought 4 ingredients was simple, just wait and see how easy mascarpone chantilly cream is to make! Just 2 steps:
- Soft Peaks: Add the heavy cream to a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and beat until soft peaks form. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Stiff Peaks: Add in the rest of the ingredients and beat until stiff peaks form.
This whipped cream will be stabilized enough to put in a piping bag pipe on cupcakes or pies. The complete recipe can be found in the recipe card down below. Keep scrolling for all the details.
How to Use Whipped Mascarpone Cream
Now that I’ve figured out this whipped cream recipe
Welcome to the weekend, my friends! It’s going to be chilly with rain all day here in Ohio. It’s the perfect kind of weather for staying cozy indoors. I have soup started, and a batch of ice cream churning, as I write this. With new books on my Kindle and plans to sit down with a puzzle later as well, I’ll happily take a rainy Saturday when I can fill it this way.
ON THE BLOGS THIS WEEK: This cheesy bacon quiche has been a favorite for many years. What’s not to love about a flaky pie crust filled with fluffy, cheesy eggs and plenty of bacon?
This tender, sweet blueberry banana bread is a irresistible riff on classic banana bread. Much like a cross between blueberry muffins and banana bread, pair a slice of this bread with that bacon quiche and everyone will be grinning.
If you like a classic spinach artichoke dip, you’re going to love this spinach artichoke pasta. We’re talking pasta enrobed in perfectly flavorful, cheesy cream sauce positively bursting with spinach and tender artichokes. Pure heaven!
What do you get when you give humble cauliflower a baked potato glow up? This loaded cauliflower casserole is tender, roasted cauliflower with all the cheddar, bacon, green onion, and sour cream goodness of your favorite loaded baked potato.

You only need two ingredients and about five minutes to make this easy hot fudge sauce. Creamy, thick, rich, and chocolatey hot fudge is a dream (and often a “must have in the house at all times” requirement) for any ice cream lover!
Give me a brownie and ice cream over pretty much any other baked good and ice cream combination. So, naturally, this chocolate fudge brownie ice cream with a rich, deep chocolate ice cream fully loaded with chunks of chocolatey, chewy, fudgy brownies calls my name – loudly.

Looking to give your lunch routine an upgrade? Try my favorite avocado sandwich recipe! With creamy avocado, roasted tomatoes, and a spicy mayo, it’s the perfect combination of flavors and textures.
Years ago I had an amazing sandwich that I’ll never be able to remember everything on it, but one thing stood out, the pickled onions on the charred tomatoes made a magical flavor I never would have expected. This sandwich gives a nod to not only that sandwich but the perfection that comes when you have a perfectly balanced sammy with sweet, salty, crunchy, acidic, toasted and… AVOCADO.
Lately our daughter has been loving avocado toast and so we took the best of her toast discoveries at restaurants with my sandwich memory and created literally the best avocado sandwich ever.
Ingredients for The Best Avocado Sandwich
Sandwiches can be as simple or as loaded as you want them to be, and you can customize to your taste. I’m going to give you my grocery list for this sandwich, and I urge you to make it as written. Each item plays an important role in making this rockstar sammy. Here is your list…
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Seven Grain Bread
- Butter
- Young Manchego Cheese
- Fresh Sprouts
- Microgreens
- Arugula
- Avocado
- Pickled Red Onions
- Salt and Black Pepper
Spicy Mayo
- Mayonnaise
- Hot Sauce
- Smoked Paprika
- Chili Powder
- Juice from Pickled Onions
The measurements and details for each ingredient can be found in the recipe card down at the end of this post.
Claire’s Tip
To find the perfect avocado, use your thumb and forefinger to gently press the top and bottom of the avocado. It should give a little if it’s ready to go. Never press or palm the whole fruit as it will bruise it.
What is the Best Bread for This Sandwich?
My favorite bread for this sandwich is the seven grain bread from Harmon’s here in Utah. In all reality, you could use any type of bread that you want…a multigrain bread, a good whole wheat bread, or heck, even a yummy white bread works great! Ooh, or sourdough bread! I’m trying that next time!
How to Make an Avocado Sandwich
Before you start to make this sandwich, make sure your red onions are pickled and you’ve whisked together the ingredients for the spicy mayo in a small bowl. Here are the steps for each fabulous layer…
- Char the Tomatoes: Heat the oven to broil and place the tomatoes on a baking sheet, cut side down. Move the oven rack to the highest position and place the baking sheet in.
Give me a brownie and ice cream over pretty much any other baked good and ice cream combination. So, naturally, a bowl of chocolate ice cream generously filled with fudgy chunks of brownies calls my name – loudly.
Chocolate Brownie Ice Cream
There’s something I simply can’t resist in the classic combination of chewy, fudgy brownies topped with a scoop of melting ice cream. And before we get too far into this mouthwatering recipe for brownie-filled ice cream, let’s not confuse this with the original Brownie Ice Cream – that ice cream = a bowl full of brownies blended into smooth, creamy ice cream. (It’s delicious as well!)
This chocolate fudge brownie ice cream starts with a rich, deep chocolate ice cream that is then fully loaded with chunks of chocolatey, chewy, fudgy brownies. My favorite brownies to add to this ice cream are Cosmic Brownies (skip the candies on top) because the extra fudgy brownies (with or without the frosting on top) just add to the awesomeness of this ice cream.
And to make your chocolate brownie ice cream even more irresistible, drizzling some hot fudge sauce through the churned ice cream while layering it into a freezer container will deliver sweet swirls of fudge in every bite along with those fantastic bites of chewy fudge brownie.
Side note – PLEASE make sure that the hot fudge sauce is no warmer than room temperature when you drizzle it into the ice cream. We don’t want that lovely freshly-churned ice cream to start
