Instructions
For best results, chill bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for about 30 minutes before starting.
Remove bowl and whisk from freezer. Pour in heavy whipping cream, sprinkle in sugar, followed by vanilla extract. Whip on medium to medium high speed for 1-2 minutes, or until medium peaks form.
Fresh whipped cream is best served immediately. Serve right away, or to make ahead of time, cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.
