KATE'S CHANTILLY CREAM - STABILIZED WHIPPED CREAM WITH VANILLA
This is "my" whipped cream, which I need to store exactly this way for future reference. It is based on Kittencal's Recipe#79506, but adding 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla. Per Kittencal, for 2 cups whipping cream, use 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin in 2 tablesppons cold water. Store covered in refrigerator for several days, if it doesn't disappear first. You can use this to frost a cake (but leftovers would need to be refrigerated). A standard serving of any condiment is 2 tablespoons. To maximize the volume, make sure the whipping bowl, beaters, and cream are well chilled before beginning.

Tips:
- Use Cold Ingredients: Start with chilled heavy cream, a chilled bowl, and chilled beaters. This helps the cream whip up faster and results in a thicker, more stable whipped cream.
- Whip Gradually: Begin whipping on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium-high. This helps to incorporate air slowly and evenly, resulting in a smooth and creamy texture.
- Don't Overwhip: Keep an eye on the cream as it whips. Once it reaches stiff peaks, stop whipping to prevent it from becoming grainy or buttery.
- Add Sugar Gradually: If desired, add powdered sugar or granulated sugar gradually while whipping. This helps to dissolve the sugar evenly and prevents it from clumping.
- Use Fresh Cream: For the best results, use fresh heavy cream with a fat content of at least 36%. Older cream may not whip up as well.
- Keep it Cold: Store whipped cream in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Bring it back to room temperature for about 15 minutes before serving.
