Ingredients
- 1 cup Cold skim milk
- 1 teaspoon Unflavored gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons Cold water
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (or a sugar substitute like stevia)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
In a small bowl, combine the unflavored gelatin powder and cold water. Let the mixture sit for 2-3 minutes to bloom the gelatin.
Step 2
Once bloomed, gently heat the gelatin mixture in the microwave for 10-12 seconds or until it dissolves completely. Let it cool slightly but not to the point of solidifying.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, pour the cold skim milk. Using a hand or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, start beating the milk on medium speed until it begins to froth, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 4
Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the milk while continuing to beat. Increase the speed to high and whip for another 2-3 minutes.
Step 5
While the mixer is running on medium speed, slowly drizzle in the slightly warm dissolved gelatin mixture. The gelatin will help stabilize the whipped cream.
Step 6
Turn the mixer back to high speed and whip for 3-4 minutes, or until the mixture develops soft, fluffy peaks.
Step 7
Transfer the whipped cream to a serving bowl or piping bag immediately, and use as desired. This whipped cream is best served fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
