Peppermint Whipped Cream, only three ingredients, super easy, and delightfully minty! Perfect on top of any hot drink, or just to eat with a spoon.
Super easy, and definitely delightful. This Peppermint Whipped Cream is so tasty, so fluffy, so decadent. And it’s the perfect compliment to a lot of other wonderful things you may be making this season.
How to Make Peppermint Whipped Cream:
- 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). I love to use my hand mixer (affiliate link), but you can use a stand mixer (affiliate link) also.
- 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.
- 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.
Just imagine this wonderful Peppermint Whipped Cream sitting on top of a slice of pie, cake, these French Silk Brownies! Or even just a cookie. Of course the obvious is putting a heaping spoonful on top of a mug of hot chocolate. Or in your coffee. Because..holidays deserve peppermint whipped cream in your morning coffee.
This Peppermint Whipped Cream is packed with peppermint flavor and you may possibly find yourself dipping into it with just a spoon and indulging.
