Ingredients
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon Grand Marnier liqueur
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Chill a mixing bowl and whisk or hand mixer beaters in the refrigerator for 15 minutes prior to starting, as this helps the cream whip faster.
Step 2
In the chilled bowl, pour the heavy whipping cream.
Step 3
Using a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed, begin whipping the cream until it starts to thicken, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 4
Add the powdered sugar, Grand Marnier, and vanilla extract to the bowl.
Step 5
Continue whipping the mixture on medium-high speed until soft peaks form, approximately 2-3 more minutes. Be careful not to overwhip, as this can turn the cream into butter.
Step 6
Once the whipped cream reaches the desired consistency, stop mixing immediately.
Step 7
Serve immediately or refrigerate the whipped cream for up to 24 hours in an airtight container. Whisk lightly before serving if needed.
