Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract optional
  • 2 to ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • A couple drops vanilla extract optional
  • 1 to 2 teaspoons powdered sugar
  • A generous pinch ground cinnamon

Equipment

  • Whisk
  • Mixing Bowl

Method
 

  1. Start by choosing a large bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer. Add heavy cream, vanilla extract (if using), powdered sugar, and ground cinnamon. This combination will create the rich base for your whipped cream.
  2. Now, grab a whisk, handheld electric mixer, or the whisk attachment of your stand mixer. If you're feeling adventurous, you can even use a mason jar to shake it all together!
  3. Begin whisking the cream on low speed. Gradually increase to high speed. As you whisk, keep an eye on the cream's texture. You'll notice it starting to thicken.
  4. As the cream thickens, stop occasionally to scrape down the sides of the bowl. This ensures even mixing and that all the ingredients are well incorporated.
  5. Continue whisking until you reach your desired consistency. For Cinnamon Whipped Cream that's perfect for spooning over drinks, aim for soft peaks. If you prefer a stiffer texture for piping or decorating, whisk until you see stiff peaks forming.
  6. Once you’ve achieved the perfect consistency, it’s time to serve! Spoon your Cinnamon Whipped Cream over desserts, coffee, or enjoy it straight from the bowl.
  7. Enjoy the compliments from your guests as they savor the rich flavors and delightful texture of your freshly made Cinnamon Whipped Cream!

Notes

For single-serving whipped cream, use a smaller bowl. You will also need to whip it by hand or with a handheld electric mixer as a stand mixer won’t be able to whip a single serving.
To substitute granulated sugar for powdered sugar, use 2 to 3 tablespoons for the full batch or 1 to 1½ teaspoons for a single serving.
Whip cream whips up faster and more easily in a chilled bowl. If whipping the cream by hand, place the bowl in the freezer for 15 minutes before starting.
