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.
WHIPPED CREAM-LIKE FROSTING
A wonderful, fluffy white frosting similar to whipped cream. It's great on Red Velvet cakes or any chocolate cake. I sometimes use it to fill in between the layers, and use another frosting on the outside.

Tips:
- Choose the right cream: Heavy cream or whipping cream with at least 36% milkfat is ideal for making whipped cream frosting. Lower-fat creams will not whip up as well and may result in a runny or grainy frosting.
- Chill your ingredients: Before whipping the cream, make sure the cream, whisk, and bowl are all chilled. This will help the cream whip up faster and produce a stiffer frosting.
- Whip gradually: Start whipping the cream on low speed and gradually increase the speed to medium or high. This will help prevent the cream from over-whipping and becoming grainy.
- Don't over-whip: Over-whipping the cream will cause it to become grainy and stiff. Stop whipping once the cream has reached stiff peaks.
- Flavor and sweeten to taste: Feel free to add flavors and sweeteners to your whipped cream frosting to taste. Some popular options include vanilla extract, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and fruit.
Conclusion:
Whipped cream frosting is a delicious and versatile frosting that can be used to top cakes, cupcakes, pies, and other desserts. It is easy to make and can be flavored and sweetened to taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a whipped cream frosting that is sure to impress your friends and family.
