Ingredients
- 1 cup Heavy cream (cold)
- 0.5 cup Creme fraiche (cold)
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Place a medium-sized mixing bowl and whisk (or the whisk attachment of a hand or stand mixer) in the freezer for 10 minutes to chill. This helps the whipped cream form more easily.
Step 2
Remove the chilled bowl and whisk from the freezer and add the heavy cream, creme fraiche, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to the bowl.
Step 3
Using a hand whisk or an electric mixer on medium speed, begin whipping the mixture. Start slowly to avoid splashes, then gradually increase speed as the mixture starts to thicken.
Step 4
Whip the mixture until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip, as the mixture can turn grainy or start to separate.
Step 5
Taste the whipped cream and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding a little more powdered sugar, then gently whisk to combine.
Step 6
Serve immediately as a topping for desserts or fresh fruit, or cover and refrigerate for up to 8 hours before serving. Gently re-whisk if needed before use.
