Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 cups
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Remove heavy whipping cream from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to slightly chill without being too warm.
- Select a large, clean mixing bowl and place it in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes to ensure it's cold, which helps the cream whip more effectively.
- Pour the cold heavy whipping cream into the chilled mixing bowl.
- Add powdered sugar, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract directly into the cream.
- Using an electric mixer with whisk attachment or a hand whisk, begin beating the cream on medium-low speed to incorporate ingredients.
- Gradually increase mixer speed to medium-high, continuously beating until soft peaks form and the cream becomes light and fluffy.
- Stop mixing when the whipped cream holds its shape and creates distinct peaks when the whisk is lifted.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or cinnamon if desired by gently folding in additional powdered sugar or ground cinnamon.
- Transfer whipped cream to a serving bowl or use immediately as a topping for desserts, coffee, or other treats.
- Store any unused whipped cream in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days.
Tips
- Chill Your Equipment: For the best results, chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes before whipping the cream. This helps the cream whip faster and achieve a fluffier texture.
- Room Temperature Cream: Allow the heavy whipping cream to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before whipping. This slight warming can help the cream whip more easily.
- Adjust Sweetness: Taste your whipped cream as you go! If you prefer a sweeter or spicier flavor, feel free to fold in more powdered sugar or ground cinnamon to suit your palate.
- Don’t Overmix: Keep a close eye on your cream as you whip it. Stop mixing as soon as soft peaks form to avoid turning it into butter.
- Storage: Store any leftover whipped cream in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. Just give it a gentle stir before using, as it may separate slightly.
