Serves: 5
Prep: 5 min
Well-chilled cream will whip the best, so keep it refrigerated until ready to use. When the cream begins to thicken as you beat it, reduce the mixer speed so you can watch carefully and beat just until soft peaks form. Overbeaten cream will look curdled.
For 1 cup whipped cream: Beat 1/2 cup whipping (heavy) cream and 1 tablespoon granulated or powdered sugar in chilled small bowl with electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.
For 1 1/2 cups whipped cream: Beat 3/4 cup whipping (heavy) cream and 2 tablespoons granulated or powdered sugar in chilled small bowl with electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.
For 2 cups whipped cream: Beat 1 cup whipping (heavy) cream and 2 tablespoons granulated or powdered sugar in chilled medium bowl with electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.
