Best Vanilla Whipped Cream Recipe
Creating this vanilla whipped cream with Dandy Blend is simple and requires just a few ingredients. The night before you want to make the whipped cream, or at least 3 hours, chill the bowl and whisks you’ll be using. This helps the cream whip up faster and achieve better volume. Once ready, combine heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and Dandy Blend. Beat the mixture on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Be careful not to over-whip, as you want it to be fluffy and light. Taste your whipped cream and adjust the sweetness or Dandy Blend according to your preference. Dollop generously on top of your favorite Thanksgiving pies or serve it on the side for guests to add themselves.
