Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1/2 teaspoon gelatin ((unflavored))
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons water
  • 1 cup cold heavy cream
  • 2 Tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instruction

  • Place a medium to large bowl and electric beaters (or whisk attachment and a stand mixer bowl) in the freezer and chill 15 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, dissolve the gelatin in the water. Let sit a few minutes until thickened. Microwave about 10 seconds, or until it turns back to liquid.
  • In the chilled bowl, add the cream, sugar, and vanilla. Using an electric mixer fitted with chilled beaters, beat on low until combined. Beat on high 1 minute, or until soft peaks form. Slowly mix in the liquid gelatin while the beaters are on. Beat until soft peaks forms or it reaches the texture of cool whip.
  • Chill until ready to use. It will stay stable for 24 hours. Replace in any recipe using cool whip, cup for cup.
