Dissolve the gelatin

Notes
- Before you begin, prep bowl and beaters by placing in the freezer for 15 minutes to chill.
- Do not overbeat - it will become gummy and gluey and the texture won't be as fluffy.
- Soft peaks: When you lift your beaters, the peaks of the cream should flop over immediately.
- Stiff peaks: Stay straight up when you lift your beaters.
