Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup heavy cream (240g/ml), cold
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract on medium-high speed using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment.
- Continue to whip for about 3–4 minutes until medium peaks form. Be cautious not to over-whip, as this will make the cream look curdled and heavy.
- If over-whipped, add a bit more cold heavy cream and gently fold it in with a spatula until smooth.
- Use the whipped cream immediately or cover and store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Notes
Ensure the heavy cream is cold for the best results.
For a sweeter cream, adjust the sugar to taste.
This whipped cream can be flavored with cocoa powder or other extracts for variation.
