Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
1. Chill a medium-sized mixing bowl and the beaters of a hand mixer (or the whisk attachment of a stand mixer) in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes. This helps the cream whip up faster and stay stable.
2. Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl.
3. Add the powdered sugar, Kahlua, and vanilla extract to the cream.
4. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, start beating the mixture on low speed to prevent splattering. Gradually increase the speed to medium-high.
5. Beat until soft to medium peaks form, which typically takes 3-5 minutes. Soft peaks will gently fold over when the beaters are lifted, while medium peaks hold their shape with slightly curled tips.
6. Be careful not to overwhip, as the cream can become grainy and eventually turn into butter.
7. Once whipped to the desired consistency, use immediately as a topping or cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
8. Serve on pies, cakes, hot chocolate, coffee, or any dessert of your choice for a decadent finishing touch.
