Calories: 252kcal
Ingredients
- 1 lb Fresh strawberries washed and sliced (hulling optional, see notes)
- 1 cup heavy cream chilled
- 1.5 tablespoon confectioner's sugar
- ½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract optional
Instructions
- Whip the chilled heavy cream in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (see notes) for about a minute.
- When it starts to thicken, add the confectioner's (powdered) sugar and vanilla extract (if using) and continue to whisk until firm.
- Serve immediately with strawberries.
Notes
This recipe does not include time for hulling the strawberries.
If you don't have a stand mixer, you can use an electric hand mixer or a regular whisk. If you whisk the cream with a hand whisk it will take longer to firm up.
