INGREDENT
- 1 glass (about 250 ml) cold full-fat milk
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar (or to taste)
- 2 tbsp cold butter (unsalted)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
- Ice cubes (for chilling the bowl)
Instructions
- Chill your tools: Place a mixing bowl over another bowl filled with ice cubes to keep everything cold — this helps the cream whip faster.
- Melt the butter: In a small saucepan or microwave, melt the butter until fully liquid but not boiling.
- Blend milk & butter: Pour the cold milk into a blender or mixing bowl. Slowly add the melted butter while blending on medium speed. This will thicken the milk slightly.
- Add sugar & vanilla: Once combined, add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Continue whipping with a hand mixer or stand mixer on high speed for about 8–10 minutes, until soft peaks form.
- Check consistency: When the mixture holds peaks and looks fluffy, it’s ready.
- Serve immediately: Use for cakes, pies, fruit, or any dessert. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
If you want, I can also give you a no-butter version that uses only milk and a chilling trick so it’s lighter.
