Chocolate Whipped Cream Dream
Light as air, rich as dessert heaven—this fluffy chocolate whipped cream is the ultimate topping, dip, or spoon-straight-from-the-bowl indulgence.
🍫 Ingredients
-
1 cup heavy cream, ice-cold
-
2 tbsp cocoa powder (unsweetened or Dutch-process)
-
2–3 tbsp powdered sugar (adjust to taste)
-
½ tsp vanilla extract
-
Pinch of salt (enhances chocolate flavor)
-
Optional upgrades:
-
1 tbsp chocolate syrup (for extra richness)
-
½ tsp espresso powder (deepens flavor)
-
Mini chocolate chips (for texture)
-
🌀 How to Make It
-
Chill everything: Bowl, beaters, and cream for 15 mins (cold = fluffier peaks).
-
Sift & mix: Whisk cocoa, powdered sugar, and salt to avoid lumps.
-
Whip it good: Beat cream and vanilla to soft peaks, then gradually add cocoa mix.
-
Finish: Whip to stiff peaks (but don’t overbeat—or you’ll get chocolate butter!).
💡 Pro Tips
✅ Too thick? Fold in 1 tbsp extra cream.
✅ For mousse-like texture: Gently fold in whipped egg whites (if safe for your diet).
✅ Dairy-free? Use coconut cream (chill can overnight, scoop out solid part).
🍨 Ways to Devour It
-
Cloud-like topping: On hot cocoa, waffles, or scoops of vanilla ice cream.
-
Dip it: For strawberries, pretzels, or spoonfuls of poor decisions.
-
Layer it: In parfaits with crushed cookies or espresso-soaked ladyfingers.
