Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Unflavored gelatin
- 2 tablespoons Cold water
Instructions
Place a metal mixing bowl and the beaters of a hand mixer in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to chill.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the gelatin and cold water. Allow the mixture to sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
Microwave the gelatin mixture for 5-10 seconds until completely dissolved. Let it cool slightly but not set.
Remove the chilled mixing bowl and beaters from the refrigerator. Pour the heavy whipping cream into the bowl.
Using the hand mixer, beat the heavy whipping cream on medium speed until it begins to thicken, about 1-2 minutes.
Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract while continuing to beat the cream.
Once soft peaks have formed, slowly stream in the slightly cooled gelatin mixture while beating on low speed.
Increase the mixer speed to medium-high and beat until stiff peaks form, about 1-2 minutes. Do not overwhip.
Use immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
