How to Make Strawberry Cream Donut Sandwiches
Step 1: Prepare the Whipped Cream
- In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.
- Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip.
- Set the whipped cream aside, or refrigerate it if you’re not assembling the sandwiches immediately.
Step 2: Prep the Donuts
- Carefully slice each donut in half horizontally, creating a top and bottom for each sandwich.
- If desired, use plain donuts to control the sweetness, or stick with glazed for a more indulgent treat.
Step 3: Assemble the Donut Sandwiches
- Spoon a generous dollop of whipped cream onto the bottom half of each donut.
- Arrange a layer of sliced strawberries on top of the whipped cream.
- Place the top half of each donut back on, pressing gently to keep the filling in place.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy!
- Dust with a light sprinkle of powdered sugar for a pretty finish, and serve immediately. Enjoy your creamy, fruity donut sandwiches while fresh!
Tips for Making the Best Strawberry Cream Donut Sandwiches
- Choose Fresh Strawberries: Fresh, ripe strawberries add the best flavor and texture to these sandwiches.
- Chill Your Cream: Keep the heavy cream and mixing bowl cold for the best whipped cream consistency.
- Go Nuts with Variations: Try swapping strawberries with raspberries, blueberries, or even a mix of all three for a fruity twist.
- Add a Drizzle: A light drizzle of chocolate or caramel can elevate these sandwiches into a dessert that’s as elegant as it is fun.
