Ingredients
Scale

- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup mixed fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- Optional: A sprinkle of matcha powder or cocoa powder for dusting
Instructions
- Trim the crusts off the bread slices.
- In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip.
- Spread a generous layer of the whipped cream onto four of the bread slices.
- Arrange the mixed berries evenly over the cream.
- Top with the remaining four bread slices, pressing down gently.
- If desired, lightly dust the tops with matcha powder or cocoa powder.

- Serve immediately.
Notes
- For best results, ensure your cream and bowl are very cold before whipping.
- You can customize the fruit filling with other seasonal fruits like sliced peaches, mangoes, or kiwis.
- These sandwiches are best enjoyed fresh, as the bread can become soggy if left for too long.
