Ingredients

Instructions

  • Place a bowl and whisk in the freezer for 15 minutes prior to whipping the cream
  • Place cream and sugar in the cold mixing bowl and whisk back and forth and front to back until you have just reached stiff peaks.

Notes

Storage: Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days, depending on the freshness of your cream.
Freezing: Freeze in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw for 10 to 15 minutes before using.
Substitutions: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
  • Heavy Cream: It's not recommended to substitute for anything else. You can use light heavy cream but the consistency won't be same or hold as well.
  • Sugar: You can substitute the granulated sugar for equal parts honey or maple syrup but the consistency is best with granulated sugar.
