WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING
Whipped cream is a light and simple option for frosting cakes and cupcakes, especially when paired with fresh fruit. The trick is making sure it doesn't get too soft before it's served. Some cooks mix in cream of tartar, which can add a sour note. We prefer powdered milk. It helps create a frosting that's stable enough for piping and layering without affecting the taste

Steps:
- Place a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer in the freezer until cold, about 5 minutes. Alternatively, fill the bowl with ice water and let stand for 5 minutes. Pour out the ice water and quickly wipe the bowl dry.
- Sift the sugar and powdered milk into the chilled bowl, then add the cold cream and vanilla. Whip the mixture on high speed until stiff, but smooth peaks form, about 2 minutes. If you accidentally overwhip, the peaks will look like they are cracking. Add about a tablespoon more heavy cream and hand whip the frosting until it smooths out.
- The recipe makes enough frosting to generously top 24 cupcakes or to cover two 8-inch-round cakes, plus extra to pipe decorations. Unrefrigerated, the frosting will hold its shape for up to 6 hours.
STURDY WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING
This is a YUMMY whipped cream frosting that is very stable and does not melt at room temperature unlike many standard whipped cream frostings. It also makes a GREAT dip for fresh fruit -- not too sweet, just right! This recipe is GREAT for a stand mixer but will work with any good mixer.

Tips:
- Using heavy cream with a fat content of at least 36% will ensure a stable and fluffy whipped cream frosting.
- Chill the heavy cream and beaters before whipping to help the cream whip up faster and more easily.
- Start whipping the cream on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium-high as the cream begins to thicken.
- Do not over-whip the cream, as this can cause it to become grainy.
- For a sweeter frosting, add sugar or powdered sugar to the whipped cream while whipping.
- For a flavored frosting, add extracts, essences, or spices to the whipped cream while whipping.
- Use whipped cream frosting immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
Conclusion:
Whipped cream frosting is a versatile and delicious frosting that can be used to top a variety of desserts, including cakes, pies, cupcakes, and cookies. It is easy to make and can be customized with different flavors and colors to suit any occasion.
