Ingredients
Scale
Whipped Cream Mixture
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup chocolate shavings
Instructions
- Whip the Cream: In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream using a hand mixer or stand mixer until soft peaks form. This means the cream will hold its shape lightly when the beaters are lifted.
- Add Sweeteners and Flavor: Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped cream and continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Stiff peaks stand firmly without collapsing.
- Fold in Chocolate Shavings: Gently fold the chocolate shavings into the whipped cream using a spatula, being careful to retain the airy texture.
- Serve: Spoon the whipped cream mixture into small cups or bowls and serve immediately for a fresh, creamy treat at your game night.
Notes
- Ensure the heavy cream is cold for better whipping results.
- You can substitute powdered sugar with confectioner’s sugar if desired.
- Use a spatula to fold in chocolate gently to keep the mixture light and fluffy.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
- For a flavor twist, add a splash of coffee or liqueur before folding in chocolate.
