Description
A simple and delicious homemade whipped cream recipe.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1/4 cup cold heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, sifted
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup cold heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar, sifted
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large cold mixing bowl on medium-high speed (with whisk attachment if using a 5 quart stand mixer), beat the heavy cream until it starts to thicken, about 1 minute making the small batch version, you don’t want your bowl larger than 5 quart.
- If your bowl is too big or you’re having trouble whipping, use a smaller bowl with a handheld mixer.
- Gradually beat in the sugar and vanilla then continue beating until stiff peaks form (when you pull the beater up, peaks will form and not fall over), about 3-4 minutes immediately.
- Refrigerate leftovers for up to 2 days. The longer it sits, the more it’ll deflate but will still be delicious.
Notes
- For best results, ensure all ingredients and tools are chilled.
