Here’s a super simple recipe that I always seem to need just to check the ratios. It is a quick and easy recipe that will only take a few minutes but those few minutes make such a better product than anything you can get from the store. Just throw all the ingredients into a bowl and whisk together and you have the start of a great dessert, a topping for your coffee or pancakes, or just eat it as a treat!
Tips and Tricks
- Any tips of sugar will work with this recipe but powdered sugar will give the most consistent results. I mostly use powdered sugar but if the whipped cream will be going on a cinnamon coffee, I will use brown sugar. It is a fun factor to mess with and try with different things!
- Another fun swap is to change out the vanilla extract for different syrups. I’ve used both mint and a cinnamon syrup with this recipe to change up the flavors. It makes it really fun then!
- I honestly love to make this and pair it with fruit to make a fun dessert. It tastes like a dessert and not completely terrible for you. It makes for a good middle ground.
- Be careful not to overwhip the heavy cream as that can create butter and I’m guessing that’s not what your looking for.
