Ingredients
– 1 cup (240 g) cold heavy cream Provides the base for a rich, creamy texture
– 3 tablespoons (22 g) powdered sugar Sweetens the mix and helps it thicken smoothly
– 1 teaspoon (4 g) vanilla extract Adds the signature vanilla flavor that makes this topping irresistible
Instructions
1-First: place your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for at least 15 minutes to help the cream whip faster.
2-Pour: 1 cup of cold heavy cream into the chilled bowl for a solid base.
3-Next: add 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract to enhance the flavor.
4-Using: an electric mixer on medium speed, whip the mixture until soft peaks form, which takes about 3-5 minutes.
5-If you need firmer peaks, increase to high speed for another minute, but watch closely to avoid overwhipping.
6-For variations like vegan options, swap in coconut cream and whip as usual to keep things adaptable.

❄️ Chill the mixer bowl and wire whip attachment in the fridge for at least 30 minutes or freezer for 15 minutes before whipping for best results.
🥛 Use cold heavy cream with 36% milk fat for quick whipping and a light texture. Avoid substituting with half-and-half or whole milk.
🍰 Avoid overmixing to prevent grainy texture or separation; stop whipping when medium peaks form for most uses.
