Ingredients

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 2 Tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Add the heavy whipping cream, sugar, and vanilla to a large bowl or bowl of a stand mixer.
  • Using a hand mixer on high speed or a stand mixer, mix for about 2 minutes or until soft peaks form. Soft peaks form when the whipping cream clings to the whisk when lifted. Enjoy!

Notes

Cold heavy whipping cream in a chilled bowl whips better.
 
Careful not to over-mix, or the whipping cream will turn into butter!
