Strawberry Whipped Cream Food Processor Frosting
Inspired by Serious Eats, this frosting is genius! It uses a food processor, which makes a dense whipped cream to frost your favorite desserts with. The dried strawberries create a stable, thick, and flavorful cream.
The hibiscus tea syrup (check out my last recipe) creates a pop of flavor. Don’t forget to add the smallest pinch of salt. Note: If you have a scale, that’s the best way to weigh the strawberries. I used Trader Joe’s freeze dried strawberries (it’s almost 1 cup).

Instructions Strawberry Whipped Cream Food Processor Frosting:
Add the dried strawberries, cane sugar, and hibiscus tea to a food processor. Process until it becomes a fine powder (to make sure it’s all processed, stir carefully with a fork).
Add the cream and vanilla and stir carefully with a fork. Then pulse for about two minutes (this is a project to watch carefully to avoid creating butter). It will be thick and creamy like Greek yogurt.
Top your favorite desserts (and make sure to store them in the fridge).

This is the perfect drink for a hot summer day. If you are in the north east, like me you know these days are numbered, the leaves are already falling! It’s inspired by the Venezuelan drink, Tizana, which is made with chopped fruit and grenadine and can be spiked.
