Key Ingredients

  • Heavy whipping cream: Essential for a thick, rich whipped cream.
  • Powdered sugar: Contains a small amount of cornstarch that helps the whipped cream maintain its fluff and acts as the foundation of sweetness.
  • Vanilla extract: Builds upon the powdered sugars sweetness with a caramelly warmth.
  • Pumpkin pie spice: The star of the show! This is the blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and allspice that characterizes Fall flavors.

Tips and Variations

  • For a vegan option, substitute heavy whipping cream for full-fat coconut cream! There are also a few vegan heavy whipping cream alternatives available in stores for those who don’t like the taste of coconut.
  • The colder the better! Use heavy whipping cream straight from the fridge and chill your mixing bowl and attachment beforehand.
  • Do not over-whip: too much mixing will give the whipped cream a grainy texture.
