This Peppermint Whipped Cream is the perfect addition to your winter cups of hot chocolate or peppermint mocha coffees. It's so good I could just eat it with a spoon.
Peppermint is the flavor of Christmas. At least for me, that is. I still have memories of going to the zoo for the festival of lights each year and seeing Santa. Everyone got a little candy cane then we would watch the ice skaters as drank hot chocolate and peppermint fudge. I love this season and being a mom I get to now make childhood memories with my little ones.
One of our favorites has been family Christmas movie nights. Tonight we will be watching The Muppets Christmas Carol and making a big pot of homemade hot chocolate. You, of course, can't have hot chocolate this season without homemade peppermint whipped cream. It's so simple to make and it tastes amazing. Like Christmas in a cup!
Chilling your mixing bowl tip:
I start by chilling the bowl I will be using. Just make sure what you are using is safe to be chilled, I use my metal bowl from my stand mixer and placed it in the fridge for 10 minutes.
How to make Peppermint Whipped Cream:
Step one: Place all ingredients into the chilled bowl and whisk.
Step two: Whisk until my cream has formed soft peaks. This could take 6-8 minutes so using a stand mixer is ideal for this recipe.
Step three: Enjoy! You can store in a container in the fridge or use right away for topping. I topped mine with Christmas sprinkles.
