Name: Amaretto Whipped Cream
Total time: 5 min
Ingredients: 1 cup heavy cream , chilled; 2 tablespoons Amaretto; 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar

Why This Recipe Works

We found that chilling the mixer bowl and whisk attachment before whipping the cream provided extra insurance that the cream stayed cold enough to incorporate the optimal amount of air. We also found the sweet spot for whipping to be about 3 minutes, but results will vary depending on the temperatures of your cream and tools. Just 2 tablespoons of the liqueur was enough to provide the whipped cream with subtle almond flavor without making it too boozy.

Before You Begin

For the best results, chill the bowl and the whisk attachment before whipping the cream.

Instructions

Using stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment, whip cream, Amaretto, and sugar on medium-low speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Increase speed to high and whip until soft peaks form, 1 to 3 minutes.
