Ingredients:

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, chilled
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and finely chopped

Instructions:

  1. Chill the Bowl and Whisk: Place your mixing bowl and whisk in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes. This helps the cream whip up more quickly.
  2. Prepare Strawberries: While the bowl and whisk are chilling, wash, hull, and finely chop the fresh strawberries. You can mash them slightly with a fork if you prefer a smoother texture.
  3. Whip the Cream: Take the chilled bowl and whisk out of the freezer. Pour the heavy whipping cream into the bowl. Whisk on medium speed until it starts to thicken.
  4. Add Sugar and Vanilla: Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream. Continue to whisk on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.
  5. Fold in Strawberries: Gently fold in the finely chopped strawberries. Be careful not to overmix, as this can deflate the whipped cream.
  6. Serve: Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours. Strawberry whipped cream is perfect for topping cakes, cupcakes, pancakes, waffles, or simply enjoying on its own.

Enjoy your homemade strawberry whipped cream!
