Theblendergirl's Thoughts

By theblendergirl

This vegan incantation of my mom's sensational brandy cream recipe can be made in five minutes and is utterly divine.

This cream is delicious poured over Christmas pudding, fruit cake, or berries, or try the "scoff-straight-out-of-the-blender" approach that I have been sprung indulging in this week!

I deliberately kept this blend mild to accommodate children, and those people not fond of a really strong brandy flavor.

But if you are like my family and can't get enough brandy, feel free to adopt my mother's approach, and free-pour like an alcoholic bartender and enjoy the ride.

Please note--you will need a high-speed blender such as a Vitamix in order to achieve a really creamy consistency.
