Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream , also called heavy whipping cream
- 2 to 3 Tbsp Dark Brown Sugar , or other dark sugar of choice*
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp molasses , optional for darker colored whipped cream
Instructions
- For best results, chill mixing bowl in the fridge for 15 minutes before whipping. Keep heavy cream cold in the fridge until then.
- Pour the cold heavy cream into the chilled mixing bowl. If you're using a stand mixer, use the whisk attachment. You can also use a hand mixer with beaters.
- Add 2 Tbsp brown sugar and vanilla extract.
- Optionally, add 1 tsp of molasses if you want a darker-colored whipped cream.
- Begin whipping the cream at low speed, gradually increasing to high as it thickens.
- Do a quick taste test and add more sugar if you want it sweeter
- Whip the cream until it thickens and reaches stiff peaks, or until the beater starts to leave tracks in the cream (see pics)Note: Be careful not to over-whip, as it can turn into butter.
- Use the freshly whipped cream to top your favorite desserts, such as cakes, pies, fruits, or hot beverages like coffee or hot chocolate.
- Yields approximately 2 cups of whipped cream
- If you have leftover whipped cream, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will keep well for 1-2 days. You may need to re-whip it for a few seconds to restore the desired consistency.
Notes
*Instead of Dark Brown Sugar, you can also use Date Sugar or Coconut Sugar. For a lower-carb option, replace brown sugar with a sugar-free brown sugar substitute such as granulated brown monk fruit sweetener or brown erythritol.
