Simple Whipped Cream Recipe
Three simple ingredients is all you need to make your own homemade whipped cream that is velvety smooth and thick.
Servings: 10 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla bean paste {or vanilla extract}
Instructions
- Add whipped cream to a mixing bowl with powdered sugar and vanilla, beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Note: If you accidentally over-whip the cream, and it looks curdled and heavy, pour in a little bit more cold heavy cream, and fold it in gently by hand with a spatula until it smooths out.
- Use on your favorite dessert and store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Notes
- Heavy whipping cream (with at least 36% milk fat) will give you the best results.
- Cold cream is non-negotiable for the perfect whipped cream.
- For even better results, chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 10 minutes before starting.
