In the market for some whipped cream to top a delicious dessert ended with the discovery of corn syrup in the ingredient list. I would rather not support a subsidized crop that has weaseled its way into practically every product and has been shown to have adverse health consequences. In our society refined sugar consumption is at an all time high and it's no coincidence that diabetes, obesity, and other diet related health problems have also sky-rocketed.
But there is hope. More and more people and communities are once again realizing that simple ingredients are necessity and if that can't be found on the shelf, you make it. And that brings us to my whipped cream, hold the corn.
Whipped Cream with Stevia & Vanilla
1 cup of organic heavy whipping cream
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Half a dropper of organic liquid stevia extract or to taste
Whisk cream in a chilled bowl by hand (not using electricity, yeah!) or electric mixer until peaks just start forming. Add stevia and vanilla and continue whisking until soft peaks form. Don't over beat.
Your can store your homemade whipped cream in the refrigerator for several hours or FREEZE it.
What is your favorite way to serve your whipped cream?
