Description
This Chocolate Whipped Cream frosting recipe is super easy to make with 4 ingredients and in less than 10 minutes. With its deliciously creamy texture and intense chocolate flavour, it is a great frosting to use over cakes and desserts!
Ingredients
Scale
- 75 gr Powdered Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract (optional)
- 50 gr Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (raw, natural or dutch processed)
- 360 ml Heavy / Thickened Cream (min 30% fat)
Instructions
- Before you start, make sure the utensils you use are very cold. Place the bowl and whisk attachment in the fridge (with glass bowl) for 20 minutes or freezer (with metal bowl) for 10 minutes.
- Pour the very cold cream and vanilla (optional) in a large mixing bowl if using a hand mixer or the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.
- Sift in the powdered sugar and cocoa powder, making sure no lumps remain at all.
- Start whipping the cream on low speed until the powders have been incorporated, stopping to scrape the bowl with a spatula if needed.
- Increase to medium high speed and whip for about 3 minutes or until you reach medium / medium-stiff peaks. Stop whipping as soon as the cream gets thicker and you see ‘waves’ on top of the cream.
- If not used directly, cover the cream with plastic wrap touching its surface and keep in the fridge until ready to use.
Notes
- Use unsweetened cocoa powder for best results.
- Ensure all ingredients and utensils are very cold for optimal whipping.
- Do not over-whip the cream to avoid a grainy texture.
