There are those occasions where you know whip cream will do something special to you dish. I especially like it on apple pie and on Ice cream. But there is a huge difference between home made whip cream and whipping cream you can buy in the supermarket. The one you buy in your supermarket has all kinds of additional ingredients in it so you can use it for a longer period. But it will never match your own home made whipping cream. You don’t have to be a chef to make whip cream but just in case you don’t know exactly how it works this article will help you how to make home made whip cream.

Did you knew that when you make whipping cream yourself it is much healthier compared to the ones in the shop? Well that is just another reason why you should make it yourself. In order to do this you will need the following ingredients

Ingredients for Whipping Cream

* You will need 10z if Cream. Heavy cream is your best option but if you want one with lower fat you could choose medium cream.

* You will also need Sugar, 1 Tablespoon

* Vanilla Extract or Vanilla (herb)

What Kitchen Equipment do you need?

* A mixing bowl where all the ingredients come together

* An Electric Mixer or if you want to do some handwork, a whisk

Step By Step

* The first step is very easy, put together your cream, sugar and vanilla (stick or extract) in to the mixing bowl.

* Take your mixer (or Whisk) and start blending the ingredients until the cream starts to thicken.

* When you notice the cream starts to thicken you want to speed up your mixer or whisk and stop when you see the cream peaking.

* You can taste a little bit in order to check the taste and see if it is mixed enough. Don’t use the mixer for too long because you might end up making butter instead.

Well it is that easy to make home made whip cream. If you don’t like vanilla or if you want to give it another flavor than replace the vanilla for something else like banana flavoring or another extract you like.
