Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream (cold)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Place a heatproof small bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes to chill, then remove it and set it aside.
In a microwave-safe small bowl, combine the unflavored gelatin and cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom (the gelatin will absorb the water).
After blooming, microwave the gelatin mixture for about 5-7 seconds, or until it has dissolved fully. Stir to ensure it is smooth, then let it cool to room temperature for a couple of minutes. Do not let it set.
In a chilled mixing bowl, add the cold heavy whipping cream. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the cream on medium-high speed until it starts to thicken slightly, about 1-2 minutes.
Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract (if using), continuing to whip until soft peaks form.
With the mixer running on low speed, slowly pour in the dissolved but cooled gelatin mixture. Once it is fully incorporated, increase the mixing speed to medium-high and whip until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip to avoid curdling.
Once done, use the stabilized whipped cream immediately for decorating or serving, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
