Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon Swerve

Instructions
 

  • Add the heaving whipping cream, vanilla extract, and sweetener to a medium-sized mixing bowl.
  • With a handheld electric mixer or stand mixer, beat the whipping cream until soft peaks form, which will take about 2 minutes.
  • You can beat 1 more minute to create stiff peaks if you're creating a keto whipped cream vanilla mousse. Be sure not to overbeat or you'll start making butter.
  • It's best to serve the keto whipping cream immediately, but it can be stored up to 2 hours in your fridge.
  • Recipe serves 4-8 depending on if this is being used as a dollop on top of another dessert or as a dessert on its own.

Notes

  • The key to making a great keto whipped cream is in keeping everything cold! Leave your cream in the fridge until you are ready to whip it. Or, you chill your bowl and beaters before you begin making your homemade whipped cream.
  • Soft Peaks vs Stiff Peaks: Forming soft peaks means to beat the whipping cream until little cream peaks form when you pull the beaters out. The keto whipped cream is very light and fluffy at this point and just barely holds its shape. To create stiffer peaks, continue whipping, but be careful to not overwhip as you will create butter. Here's a link to an article by Fine Cooking Magazine which shows images for soft peaks, medium peaks, and stiff peaks.
