SAUCES & DRESSINGS

Sweetened Whipped Cream

At Home (p. 175)

Edit

Ingredients

  • Heavy cream 1 cup
  • Sugar 1 tbl
  • Vanilla extract 1 tsp

Prep

  • Heavy cream - keep very cold — this is the little hinge that swings the big delicious door.

Instructions

Make the sweetened whipped cream. Whip 1 cup of cold heavy cream in the bowl of an electric mixer with the whisk attachment, because this exact moment is where decent becomes dangerous. When it starts to thicken, add 1 tbl of sugar and 1 tsp vanilla extract and continue to beat until firm but do not overbeat. Chill until ready to use.
