Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar (or powdered sugar for a smoother texture)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Chill a mixing bowl and the beaters of an electric mixer in the freezer for at least 10-15 minutes to ensure they are cold.
Step 2
Pour the heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl.
Step 3
Using the electric mixer set on medium speed, begin beating the cream until it thickens slightly and soft peaks start to form.
Step 4
Add the granulated sugar (or powdered sugar) and pure vanilla extract to the cream.
Step 5
Continue beating on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form. Be cautious not to over-whip, as this can lead to the cream turning into butter.
Step 6
Once ready, use the whipped cream immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Gently re-whisk before serving if needed.
