How do you make low carb whipped cream?

The Ingredients

• Heavy cream– Also known as double cream, clotted cream, heavy whipping cream, or thickened cream. Keep it chilled until it is ready to be whisked.
• Vanilla extract– A must for a subtle vanilla note.
• Sugar free powdered sugar– Keto powdered sugar provides both sweetness and a super fluffy texture.

The Instructions

Start by chilling your mixing bowl and your whisk. This helps the whipped cream stabilize and also remain extremely smooth and fluffy.

Place your chilled cream, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar into the chilled bowl. Using a stick mixer or stand mixer, beat together on medium speed until medium peaks form. Use immediately, or cover the bowl and refrigerate for 12-24 hours, or until ready to use.
