Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (240g/ml) heavy cream or heavy whipping cream, cold
- 2 Tablespoons granulated sugar or confectioners’ sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whip the cold heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract using a handheld or stand mixer with a whisk attachment on medium-high speed.
- Continue whipping until medium peaks form, which takes about 3–4 minutes.
- If the cream becomes curdled from over-whipping, gently fold in a little more cold heavy cream with a spatula until smooth.
- Use the whipped cream immediately or cover it tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Notes
Using very cold cream helps in achieving the best texture quickly.
You can adjust the sugar to taste based on how sweet you like your whipped cream.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and re-whip gently before serving.
