Learn to make a delicious, creamy, and perfectly sweet stabilized whipped cream with just a bit of xanthan gum. It is perfect to use as you would any whipped cream, as a frosting for cake, or even as a filling for cupcakes or homemade pastries.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer starting at low speed and increasing to high as the mixer thickens. Beat until it begins to thicken and soft peaks form.
1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream, ⅓ cup Powdered Sugar, 1 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Paste
Sprinkle the xanthan gum over the top of the cream mixture. Continue beating with the electric mixer until the cream has nearly doubled in size and stiff peaks form.
¼ teaspoon Xanthan Gum
