Whipped Cream
This whipped cream is perfect for any beverage or cake. You can use it to top waffles, pancakes and so much more! It comes together in a flash and is so much better than store-bought. It's very easy and leaves almost no mess.

Ingredients:
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2+ teaspoons vanilla
Directions:
- Pour ingredients into a large bowl. You can add as much or as little vanilla as you like.
- Mix on high with an electric mixer until the mixture forms peaks on the whisk when raised.
- Enjoy!
*If the mixture tries to splash out at first, you can start on medium and turn to high as it gets less runny.
*You want to be sure not to over whip, or it will form a butter-like consistency. The whipped cream is finished as soon as it forms the peaks.
*You can also repeat this recipe in a stand mixer, fitted with the whisk attachment. Just be sure not to walk away for too long. This mixture comes together very quickly, and it's easy to get distracted and over whip.
*This whipped cream can be enjoyed on beverages and cakes. If you want it thicker and more stable you can add mascarpone cheese as needed until you get your desired consistency. It will be more of a yellow color, like cream cheese frosting, since the mascarpone has a yellow tint. This would come in handy when frosting a cake, so the whipped cream does not begin to wilt as it sits out.
*You can store the whipped cream for up to 2 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
*You can use many different flavorings to personalize this recipe in place of the vanilla. For example: peppermint extract for Christmas, rose water for a cupcake topping, and many more. You can be as creative with the flavoring as you want.
