This infused alcoholic whipped cream has a hint of bourbon that adds nuance and warmth as a dessert topping!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 4 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons alcohol, such as bourbon, rum, Kahlua, or Irish cream

Instructions

  1. Place a bowl in the freezer to chill for a few minutes. (If using a stand mixer, skip to the next step.)
  2. Combine the cream, powdered sugar, and alcohol in the chilled bowl.
  3. With a large whisk, whip the cream by moving the whisk back and forth quickly — try to whisk in a line instead of a circular motion — and whip to your desired thickness is reached. OR place the ingredients in the bowl of a KitchenAid stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, and mix on medium speed until the desired consistency is reached.  You can use a looser cream for more of a “drizzle,” or a stiffer whipped cream for the traditional Cool Whip style texture. 

Notes

If you’re whipping by hand, try placing the bowl in the sink to whip the cream so that it is a bit lower than a table, which helps to make the whisking motion easier.
