Stabilized Mascarpone Whipped Cream Recipes

Steps:

• Add the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract to a large mixer bowl and whip on high speed until soft peaks form. If making the chocolate version, also add the cocoa.
• 12. Add the mascarpone cheese to the whipped cream and whip until stiff peaks form. It will happen fairly quickly.
• The mascarpone whipped cream will stay stable in the fridge for several days, even for a week, though it won't remain as fresh. If you are going to use it to frosting something, I would suggest using it right away so that it maintains its texture well. Once it's piped or spread, etc, it'll stay put and nice and fluffy.
• *I prefer to use the mascarpone cheese when still chilled, but soft, so that it'll in corporate well, without chunks. The warmer mascarpone cheese is, the more likely it is to soften to the point that it won't firm up well again and can make too soft of a frosting. I like to take it out of the fridge about 15 minutes before using so that it softens a bit, but is still cool.

Steps:

• Whip the cream in a cold bowl with chilled beaters until fairly thick. Stop the mixer and add the cold mascarpone to the bowl. Continue whipping until thick and peaks form. Add sugar 1 tbsp at a time until the mixture is sweet enough for you. I usually add about 2-4 tbsp of the sugar.

Steps:

• Soak plain gelatin in cold water for 5 minutes.
• Dissolve by placing it in a container over a small pot of simmering water.
• Allow to cool.
• Using an electric mixer, beat cream in a large well-chilled bowl.
• Just before it becomes soft and billowy, slowly add the sugar and flavorings to the whipped cream at the sides of the bowl, continuing to whip as you do.
• Whip the cream until barely stiff.
• Add melted and cooled gelatin all at once to cream during whipping.
• Stop whipping when cream forms soft peaks.
• Finish beating with whisk to adjust consistency.
• Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate.
• TIPS: For 1 cup of cream use 1/2 teaspoon gelatin soaked in 1 tablespoon cold water.
• For 2 cups of cream use 1 teaspoon gelatin soaked in 2 tablespoons cold water.
• For 6 cups of cream use 1 tablespoon soaked in 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoon cold water.
• Stabilized whipped cream can be flavored, but do it as soon as possible before the gelatin sets.
