Whipped Cream

Ingredients:
cream, fluid, heavy whipping
sugars, granulated
vanilla extract

Directions:
In a stand mixer fitted with the whip attachment (or in a bowl by hand), whisk the cream on medium-high speed until it just begins to hold its shape.
Add the sugar and vanilla and continue to whisk on medium-high speed just until the cream mounds gently.
Dont whip it until it is superstiff, or it will become grainy.
Whipped cream is best used the same day you make it.
If whipped in advance, it may be necessary to rewhisk it slightly just before serving, because it tends to separate as it sits.
If you like specks of vanilla seed in your whipped cream, split 1/2 vanilla bean and scrape its seeds into the cream before whipping it.
To flavor whipped cream with a spirit such as Cognac, rum, whiskey, or Grand Marnier, fold in a few tablespoons to taste once the cream is sweetened and fully whipped.
You can rescue whipped cream that youve accidentally overwhipped by stirring in a few tablespoons of unwhipped cream, gently folding until the whipped cream smoothes out.
