Instructions
- Combine heavy cream, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract in a large bowl.
- Beat on medium-low speed with a hand mixer or with the attachment for a stand mixer until combined, then gradually increase the speed to high.
- Beat on high speed just until soft peaks form for a creamier, softer whipped cream or until stiff peaks form for a more stable, pipeable whipped cream that is better for frosting cakes and cupcakes. Be careful not to overbeat the whipped cream. It should be thick and fluffy but not curdling and turning into butter.
- Enjoy immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours in an airtight container. Note that it may lose some of its volume the longer it sits.
Notes
- Yield: Makes about 3 cups of whipped cream, about 8oz.
- Troubleshooting: If you go too far and overbeat the cream, try drizzling in a tablespoon or two of additional cream at a time and mixing gently to incorporate to save it.
- Storage: Chocolate whipped cream will last for about three days in the fridge, although it really is best when made fresh on the day you plan to serve it. Keep it covered with plastic wrap or in an airtight container with a lid for freshness.
