Elevate your desserts and beverages with this decadent Coffee Whipped Cream, a silky-smooth topping infused with the bold, aromatic notes of instant coffee. Made with just four simple ingredients—heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, instant coffee granules, and a touch of vanilla extract—this quick recipe comes together in just 10 minutes. The secret to perfect peaks lies in chilling your mixing bowl and whisk, ensuring a luscious, cafe-style whipped cream every time. Perfect as a topping for cakes, hot chocolate, iced coffee, or even fresh fruit, this homemade coffee-flavored whipped cream adds an irresistible touch of sophistication to any treat. Store your creation in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours and give it a quick whip before serving to keep it fluffy and fresh.
Chill a medium-sized mixing bowl and whisk (or the whisk attachment of a stand mixer) in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes. This helps the cream whip faster and stay cold.
In the chilled bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, instant coffee granules, and vanilla extract.
Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer at medium speed, begin whipping the mixture. As the cream thickens, gradually increase to high speed.
Whip until soft peaks form (when you lift the whisk, the cream should hold its shape but slightly flop at the tip). Avoid over-whipping, as this can turn the cream grainy or into butter.
Taste the whipped cream and adjust sweetness or coffee flavor with more powdered sugar or instant coffee granules, if desired.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Re-whip gently if needed before serving.
