Ingredients

  • 1 pint heavy cream
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp peppermint extract

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Add heavy cream to mixing bowl, mix starting with low speed, then gradually increase to medium speed until the cream starts getting thicker (the gradual speed progression prevents you from spraying yourself with cream).
  2. When the cream starts to thicken stop the mixer, add in the powdered sugar and then resume mixing again starting with low speed and increase to medium speed up to high speed.
  3. The cream will thicken and start to peak. Stop the mixer and add in the peppermint extract. Mix on high speed until the cream is thick and stiff.

Notes

  • Heavy Cream: Use a cold heavy cream or heavy whipping cream.
  • Powdered Sugar: Confectioner's sugar melts into the cream without any gritty texture. You can also substitute with white granulated or organic cane sugar. If you are using a granular sugar you will want to add it at the beginning of whipping the cream so it has more time to dissolve into the cream.
  • Peppermint Extract: This is where the peppermint flavoring comes from, McCormick Peppermint Extract or Organic Peppermint are the brands in my pantry.
