Prep Time:15
Total Time:45 minutes
Yield:8-10 servings 1x
Ingredients
Scale
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup powdered sugar
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 cups vanilla Greek yogurt
16 oz strawberries, washed, stems removed, and cut into bite-sized pieces
2 ripe bananas, peeled and sliced, reserving a few slices for garnish (Don’t cut until you are ready to serve)
More strawberries for garnish
Instructions
In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip together the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Remove the whipped cream to a bowl.
To the same stand mixer bowl, add the cream cheese and Greek yogurt and whip until creamy and combined.
Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
Fold in the strawberries, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until serving. I suggest refrigerating for at least 30-60 minutes. Just before serving, fold in the chopped bananas and garnish with more fruit, if desired.
Notes
Whip the heavy cream to the right consistency. You will see point peaks that hold their shape.
Fold it gently or else the salad will become dense and not stay light and airy.
Adjust the sweetness to your taste.
Use softened cream cheese. Take it out about 30 minutes before making the recipe.
