Description
A creamy, fluffy cheese foam topping made with cream cheese, whipped cream, and a touch of salt for the perfect sweet and savory finish to homemade milk tea.
Ingredients
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Place the softened cream cheese in a mixing bowl and whisk until completely smooth and free of lumps.
- Add the granulated sugar and salt. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
- Slowly pour in the heavy whipping cream while whisking continuously to create a creamy, uniform mixture.
- Add the whole milk a little at a time to slightly loosen the mixture.
- Whip until the foam thickens to a soft, fluffy, pourable consistency that can sit on top of milk tea without immediately sinking.
- Spoon or gently pour the cheese foam over freshly prepared milk tea and serve immediately.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps.
- Adjust sugar to taste depending on how sweet your milk tea is.
- For a lighter texture, whip the heavy cream separately before folding it into the cream cheese mixture.
- Add a splash of vanilla extract, matcha powder, or cocoa powder for flavor variations.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and re-whisk before using.
