How to Stabilize Whipped Cream
There are many methods you can use to stabilize whipped cream. In the past I have used corn starch, cream of tartar, and even unflavored gelatin.
My favorite method is to use instant pudding mix. It works great and will add a little bit of flavor too! For best results, use vanilla, French vanilla, cheesecake or white chocolate pudding flavors.
Tips for Making Peanut Butter Whipped Cream
- When making whipped cream, it is helpful to make sure that your heavy cream is extremely cold.
- It also helps to put your mixing bowl and whisk attachment in the freezer for 10-15 minutes before whipping your cream. It is amazing how much faster the cream thickens when using cold ingredients and tools.
- Use a stand mixer if possible. It will whip the cream quickly. I recommend either a Kitchenaid Mixer or Bosch Mixer. I have owned and loved both.
