WHIPPED CREAM PIE TOPPING



Whipped Cream Pie Topping image

It's hard to resist whipped cream in any form, but it's especially true when it tops a delicious pie.

Provided by From cookbook author and recipe developer Erin Jeanne McDowell

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 cup (240 milliliters/235 grams) cold heavy cream
1/4 cup (50 grams) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Steps:

  • 1 In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or using a large bowl and a hand mixer), whip the cream on medium speed until it begins to thicken, 1 to 2 minutes
  • 2 With the mixer running, add the sugar in a slow, steady stream, then continue to whip until medium-soft peaks form that still curl down slightly at the ends, 3 to 4 minutes
  • 3 Add the vanilla, if using, reduce the mixer speed to low and mix to combine
  • 4 Variations:
  • 5 Chocolate Whipped Cream Topping: Whisk 3 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder into the sugar before adding it to the whipped cream
  • 6 Whipped Cream "Sauce": This is essentially just under-whipped cream but with the texture of creme anglaise
  • 7 Whip the cream only until it's aerated and thick enough to coat the back of a spoon - it should be too soft to be considered whipped cream

WHIPPED CREAM TOPPING

the addition of light corn syrup to the cream helps stabilize it so the whipped cream does not go flat and stays nice and perky for a couple of days.. older cream, (check the date) whips better than fresh and the bowl and the beaters should be well chilled..

Tips:

  • Use heavy cream: Heavy cream has a higher fat content than other types of cream, which makes it ideal for whipping.
  • Chill the cream and bowl: Chilling the cream and bowl before whipping helps the cream whip up faster and produce stiffer peaks.
  • Whip the cream gradually: Start whipping the cream on low speed and gradually increase the speed as the cream begins to thicken.
  • Don't overwhip the cream: Overwhipping the cream can cause it to become grainy and separate.
  • Add flavorings and sweeteners: Once the cream is whipped, you can add flavorings and sweeteners to taste.
  • Use fresh whipped cream immediately: Fresh whipped cream is best used immediately, as it will start to lose its volume and texture over time.

Conclusion:

Fresh whipped cream is a delicious and versatile topping that can be used on a variety of desserts. By following these tips, you can make perfect whipped cream every time.
