Classic Whipped Cream
Whether for topping ice cream and pie,
or as a dip for fruit, everyone should
have a foolproof formula for a basic,
sweetened whipped cream.
Makes about 2¼ cups
1
cup heavy cream, well chilled
¼
cup confectioners’ sugar, sifted
1
teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Pinch fine sea salt
1. Put heavy cream into a large mixing bowl.
2. Start whipping cream on Speed 1,
gradually increasing to Speed 3 for about
one minute, so that the cream has some
body. Add the sifted sugar and vanilla
extract and continue to whip to Speed 4,
until cream holds stiff peaks, about 1½
minutes.

Royal Icing
This icing is great for decorating sugar
cookies or cakes. You can add food
coloring to color it or extracts to flavor it.
Makes 1½ cups
4
cups (1 pound) confectioners’ sugar,
sifted
2
large egg whites, slightly beaten
1
tablespoon whole milk
1
teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1. Put the sugar into a large mixing bowl.
Start mixing on Speed 1, and then slowly
add in the egg whites until fully incorporated,
about 1 minute.
2. While the mixer is still running, add the
milk and lemon juice and mix until fully
incorporated. Scrape the entire bowl as
necessary. Continue mixing until soft peaks
form, about 2 minutes.
3. Use immediately or cover the bowl with a
damp cloth so the icing does not harden.
If using coloring or a flavoring extract for
the icing, add it with the milk and lemon juice.
