The Best Ever Whipped Cream made with Sweetened Condensed Milk
Today I'm finally sharing my best-kept secret for making some DIVINE tasting whipped cream. The key ingredient? Sweetened Condensed Milk. It's the ultimate ingredient that helps the cream taste richer -- almost the flavor of white chocolate ganache. The flavor fusion of cream, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla is luscious and dreamy on their own, but I also like to finish it off with a pinch of salt to subtly balance out the sweetness of the condensed milk and elevate the flavor even further. Get ready for compliments because everyone you serve it to will be asking for this recipe—I guarantee it!
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy cream , also called heavy whipping cream
- ¼ cup sweetened condensed milk (no additional sugar needed)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 small pinch salt
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 the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract
- Add a pinch of salt.
- Begin whipping the cream at low speed, gradually increasing to high as it thickens.
- 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.
- 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.
- Yields approximately 2 cups of whipped cream
