Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
Chill your mixing bowl and whisk (or the beaters of a hand mixer) in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes. Cold tools will help the cream whip faster and hold its texture better.
Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract into the cream.
Using a stand mixer, hand mixer, or whisk, start beating the mixture on medium speed.
Once bubbles form and the mixture starts to thicken, increase the speed to high.
Continue beating until soft peaks form. To check, stop the mixer and lift the whisk; the cream should form peaks that slightly droop at the tips.
If you prefer stiffer peaks, continue beating for a few more seconds until the peaks hold their shape without drooping.
Be careful not to overwhip, as it can turn the cream grainy and eventually into butter.
Once whipped to your desired consistency, use immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to use (up to 24 hours).
