Make Ahead Whipped Cream Recipe
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 3 cups cold heavy cream
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- Place the sugar and cornstarch in a small saucepan.
- While stirring constantly, pour in 3/4 cup of the cream.
- Place the pan over medium heat and, stirring constantly, bring to a boil (it will be lumpy, but will smooth out).
- Remove from the heat, stir in the vanilla, and let cool completely, about 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the remaining 2 1/4 cups cream in the bowl of a stand mixer and refrigerate.
- When the cornstarch mixture has cooled, fit the chilled bowl of cream onto the stand mixer.
- Using the whisk attachment, whisk on medium speed until tracks begin to show in the cream, about 2 minutes.
- With the mixer still on, slowly add the cornstarch mixture and continue whisking until stiff peaks form, about 1 to 2 minutes more.
- The whipped cream can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days or left out at room temperature for up to 3 hours.
