In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, and granulated sugar. Stir gently to dissolve the sugar.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent it from scorching.
In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch with 50 ml of water to create a smooth slurry.
Once the cream mixture begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and gradually whisk in the cornstarch slurry. Keep stirring to ensure no lumps form.
Cook the mixture over low heat for 2-3 minutes, until it thickens to a custard-like consistency. Stir constantly to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, unsalted butter, and a pinch of salt. Mix until the butter has melted and is fully incorporated.
Allow the Heavenshire Cream to cool slightly. Transfer it to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap, ensuring the wrap touches the surface of the cream to prevent a skin from forming.
Let the cream cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Serve chilled as a dessert, or use as a rich topping for cakes, berries, or pastries.
