Gather Your Ingredients. Before you start, make sure you have all your ingredients on hand. Using cold heavy whipping cream will help it whip up nicely.
Chill Your Mixing Bowl and Beaters. For the best results, it's a good idea to chill your mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for about 15 minutes before you begin. This will help the cream whip up faster and fluffier.
Start with Heavy Whipping Cream. Pour the heavy whipping cream into your chilled mixing bowl.
Add Vanilla Extract. Measure out and add the vanilla extract to the cream. The vanilla extract adds a delightful flavor that pairs perfectly with your keto desserts.
Sweeten with Swerve Confectioner's Sugar. Now, it's time to sweeten your whipped cream with Swerve Confectioner's Sugar. Swerve is a keto-friendly sweetener that won't spike your blood sugar. Start with 2 tablespoons, but feel free to adjust to your preferred level of sweetness. You can also use other keto-approved sweeteners if you prefer.
Whip It Up. Using an electric mixer or a hand whisk, whip the cream on medium-high speed. Start slow to avoid splattering, and gradually increase the speed. Whip until you achieve stiff peaks. This means the cream will hold its shape and not be runny. Be cautious not to over-whip, as this can turn your whipped cream into butter.
Taste and Adjust. Once you've reached your desired consistency, taste your whipped cream. If it's not sweet enough for your liking, you can add a bit more Swerve Confectioner's Sugar and whip it in. Remember, it's always easier to add more sweetness, but you can't take it away, so adjust gradually.
