Whipped Cream

An essential recipe

• Prep time: 10 mins

• Easy

• Contains dairy

Ingredients

• 1 cup of heavy whipping cream

• 1 tbsp of sugar (granulated or confection)

• 1 tbsp of vanilla extract

Instructions

• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl (if you can leave your bowl in the fridge for a bit before making the whipped cream this will help)

• Blend with an eggbeater or standing mixer (using a hand mixer will take a bit longer)

• Continue to beat until you’ve reached the desired thickness of your whipped cream

• The longer you blend, the thicker it will get

Green Fact

The biggest drivers of global warming are power generation, transportation, animal agriculture, and industrial processes.

This stat is a reminder that climate change is driven by a handful of major systems, including how we produce energy and food. Whipped cream probably isn’t the make-or-break issue here—but dairy-heavy treats are a good reminder that indulgent foods fit best as occasional extras, not everyday staples.
