How to Make Whipped Cream Recipe


This is the most luscious, creamy topping ever! Homemade Whipped Cream is far superior to anything store bought so here’s a how to make whipped cream recipe!



I can remember feeling like there was literally no reason to ever make whipped cream when you could buy the frozen whipped topping.

And then it happened!

I made my own, and I have never looked back. It is the creamiest, dreamiest stuff ever!

Do you Say Whip Cream or Whipped Cream?


I have kind of a silly question, do you say whip cream or whipped cream? I only asked because I’ve always said whipped cream but I’m hearing everyone say whip cream.

For example, I had a friend text me asking how to make Homemade Whip Cream.

So which is it?

What do you Need for Whipped Cream?


Whipped cream is one of those things that you don’t need many ingredients, but you might not keep heavy cream or heavy whipping cream on hand.

  • Heavy Whipping Cream
  • Sugar or Powdered Sugar
  • Vanilla Extract



How to Whip Cream


Whipping cream into whipped cream is not a no-brainer like you might think. It’s actually the easiest thing you and your kids can learn how to do, but you can also accidentally turn it into butter.

Here’s how to whip cream.

  1. Start with a chilled glass bowl. This is not absolutely necessary but does make for a better whipped cream.
  2. Using a hand mixer or a standing mixer, beat the heavy whipping cream into soft peaks.
  3. Add the vanilla and powdered (or regular sugar) sugar and beat until stiff peaks form.

Should I Use Powdered Sugar or White Sugar in Whipped Cream?


It’s completely up to you which sugar you use, but I’m a personal fan of using powdered sugar as it’s so light and doesn’t weigh down the whipping cream.



How Much Sugar in Whipped Cream


I’m going to tell you my guidelines, but I absolutely never use a recipe in my own kitchen, I merely taste test with a little powdered sugar and add more to desired sweetness.

How to Store Homemade Whipped Cream


Homemade whipped cream should always be stored in a sealed container in the fridge. You cannot let whip cream sit out for an extended period of time or it will break down even faster.

How Long Will Homemade Whipped Cream Last For?


You can store the whipped cream in the refrigerator in your container for up to 3-4 days and havse it still hold up. If it starts to break down just whip it again.

Is there a Heavy Cream Substitute?


You can’t really use a heavy cream substitute but you can make a dairy free whipped cream by using full fat coconut milk and proceeding as normal.

I don't limit myself to sweets even on a diet, I just eat keto whipped cream instead of the usual cream
 
I always wondered how to make whipped cream taste as good as my grandmother's recipe. I loved tasting it when we visited on weekends and on the holidays as children growing up. I always said that I would master it and give my own kids a similar experience. There is nothing better than homemade cooking and freshly prepared desserts to look forward to. An amazing treat for well behaved little ones and a great incentive for parents to give out to get what they want from the youngsters who are not so keen to listen. A bit of home-cooked bribery and treat based blackmail is a successful formula that I am not ashamed to use frequently!
