|---|---|
| Fresh Liquid Cream | 250g |
| Icing Sugar | 35g |
| Vanilla Bean Pod | ¼ |
Instructions
- Begin by chilling the fresh cream thoroughly. Place a large mixing bowl in the freezer for at least 20 minutes to ensure it’s cold when you’re ready to prepare the Chantilly cream.
- Once both the cream and the bowl are chilled, pour the cream into the bowl.
- Add the icing sugar and scrape the seeds from the vanilla bean pod, adding both to the cream.
- Using a hand mixer with clean, dry beaters, start whipping the cream at medium-high speed. For a cleaner process and to avoid splashing, you can cover the bowl with plastic wrap or opt for a tall, narrow glass container.
- Continue whipping the cream until it reaches a semi-stiff peak. You can perform the “flip-the-bowl” test: hold the bowl upside down; if the cream doesn’t move, it’s perfectly whipped.
- Once the Chantilly cream has reached its desired consistency, it’s ready to enjoy! You can use it as a topping for desserts, or as a filling for cakes and pastries like éclairs and profiteroles.
This Chantilly cream recipe will elevate any dessert. Whether as a simple topping for fresh fruit or a decadent filling for your favorite pastries, it’s sure to impress. If you’re craving a smooth, fluffy cream, this recipe is your ultimate guide!
