Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream (chilled)
- 1 tablespoon sweetener (powdered sugar or maple syrup)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Combine. Combine all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, mix on medium-high speed until medium peaks form. For stiffer peaks, continue mixing a little longer.
- Serve. Serve the whipped cream immediately, or cover and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours to use later. Enjoy as a topping for desserts or drinks.
Notes
- Ensure heavy cream is chilled for best whipping results.
- You can adjust the sweetness by adding more or less sweetener according to taste.
- Vanilla extract is optional but adds a nice flavor enhancement.
- Whipped cream is best served fresh but can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- If using maple syrup, note the slight flavor difference compared to powdered sugar.
