Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup 240 ml heavy whipping cream, chilled
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Place mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 10–15 minutes to chill.
  • Pour heavy cream into the chilled bowl. Add powdered sugar and vanilla.
  • Beat with a hand or stand mixer on medium speed until cream starts to thicken.
  • Increase to medium-high speed and whip until soft or firm peaks form.
  • Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to use.

Notes

For chocolate whipped cream, add 1–2 tablespoons cocoa powder with the sugar.
To stabilize, mix in 1 teaspoon cornstarch or softened gelatin.
Overwhipping will turn cream into butter — stop once peaks hold their shape.
