Instructions
- Chill a large mixing bowl and your whisk or beaters in the refrigerator for 10–15 minutes (optional but helps the cream whip faster).
- In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup (66 g) creamy peanut butter, 1½ teaspoon (8 g) creamy peanut butter, 2 tablespoons heavy cream, 1 to 2 teaspoons (3–5 g) powdered sugar, a pinch of salt, and a couple drops vanilla extract (optional). Whisk until smooth and loosened. Set aside.
- In the chilled large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, pour 1 cup heavy cream. Add 2 tablespoons to 1/4 cup (15–30 g) powdered sugar, 1/8 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional).
- Using a handheld mixer, stand mixer, or a whisk, beat the cream mixture on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Stop once or twice to scrape down the sides of the bowl so everything is incorporated.
- Add the peanut butter mixture to the whipped cream. Fold gently with a spatula until evenly combined and the texture is smooth. Do not overmix.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate until needed.
Notes
Notes
*Granulated sugar can be substituted for powdered sugar. Use 2 to 3 tablespoons for the full batch or 1 to 1½ teaspoons for a single serving.
*Whip cream will whip up faster and more easily in a chilled bowl. If whipping the cream by hand, place the bowl in the freezer for 15 minutes before starting.
*For single-serving whipped cream, use a smaller bowl. You will also need to whip it by hand or with a handheld electric mixer as a stand mixer won’t be able to whip a single serving.
Storage:
Store whipped cream covered in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours. It may begin to deflate the longer it sits, but it will still taste delicious.
