BETTER THAN WHIPPED CREAM



Better Than Whipped Cream image

This is something I came up with as a whipped cream substitute since I am allergic to milk. It came out great and I use this on my pies. It's nice and thick like whipped cream but doesn't have any sugar or dairy. It tastes great and is easy to make.

Time 8m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

14 ounces coconut milk
4 -5 teaspoons stevia powder (equals 4-5 packets)
1/2 teaspoon arrowroot

Steps:

  • Mix all of the ingredients in a large bowl. It is important to use a large bowl so that the milk is shallow in the bowl and your electric whisk will not be more than half way submerged. This allows enough air to be beaten into the mixture and thicken.
  • Beat with electric whisk for 3 minutes. Rest for 30-60 seconds and whisk for 3 minutes more. Cover and place in the refrigerator to chill for at least 6 hours or over night. You could eat it sooner if you can't wait but it won't be that really nice thick cream it turns into. I found it stays thick longer than traditional dairy whipped cream.

Time 5m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whip cream until stiff peaks are just about to form. Beat in vanilla and sugar until peaks form. Make sure not to over-beat, cream will then become lumpy and butter-like.

Tips:

  • Use heavy cream that contains at least 35% fat for the best results. Lighter creams will not whip up as well and will produce a thinner consistency.
  • Make sure the cream is very cold before whipping. This will help it whip up faster and produce a stiffer consistency.
  • Use a chilled bowl and beaters. This will also help the cream whip up faster and produce a stiffer consistency.
  • Whip the cream gradually, starting on low speed and increasing the speed as the cream begins to thicken. This will help prevent the cream from over-whipping and becoming grainy.
  • Stop whipping the cream when it reaches stiff peaks. This means that the cream will hold its shape when you lift the beaters out of the bowl.
  • If you are using the whipped cream to top a dessert, be sure to use it immediately. Whipped cream will start to deflate after a few hours.

Conclusion:

Making whipped cream from scratch is easy and only takes a few minutes. With the right ingredients and a little patience, you can create a delicious and versatile topping that can be used on a variety of desserts. Whether you are topping a pie, a cake, or a bowl of fruit, whipped cream is a classic and elegant addition that will make your dessert even more special.
