Stabilized Whipped Cream Frosting Recipes

Steps:

• Add gelatin to cold water in a bowl.
• Set this over a saucepan with boiling water until the gelatin is clear.
• Cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile whip the cream until it is medium thick.
• With the mixer still on, pour gelatin into the center of the cream.
• Continue to whip. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
• Continue whipping until cream is in soft peaks.
• At this point you can add food coloring or use as is.
• Frost cake or cupcakes.

Steps:

• Chill mixing bowl and beaters for at least 15 minutes before using. Place water in a small microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle gelatin over water and allow to soften 5 minutes.
• Dissolve gelatin by microwaving for 3 minutes, stirring after every minute. Remove from microwave and let stand at room temperature for 10 minutes; gelatin must be liquid but not warm when added to cream.
• Remove bowl and beaters from refrigerator and pour in cream, sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat together just until beater marks begin to show distinctly.
• Add gelatin mixture to cream, pouring in a steady stream while beating constantly. Beat until stiff peaks form. Use immediately.

Steps:

• Place a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer in the freezer until cold, about 5 minutes. Alternatively, fill the bowl with ice water and let stand for 5 minutes. Pour out the ice water and quickly wipe the bowl dry.
• Sift the sugar and powdered milk into the chilled bowl, then add the cold cream and vanilla. Whip the mixture on high speed until stiff, but smooth peaks form, about 2 minutes. If you accidentally overwhip, the peaks will look like they are cracking. Add about a tablespoon more heavy cream and hand whip the frosting until it smooths out.
• The recipe makes enough frosting to generously top 24 cupcakes or to cover two 8-inch-round cakes, plus extra to pipe decorations. Unrefrigerated, the frosting will hold its shape for up to 6 hours.

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:

• 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.

Steps:

• In a small pan, combine gelatin and cold water; let stand until thick.
• Place over low heat, stirring constantly, just until the gelatin dissolves.
• Remove from heat; cool (do not allow it to set).
• Whip the cream with the icing sugar, until slightly thick.
• While slowly beating, add the gelatin to whipping cream.
• Whip at high speed until stiff.

Steps:

• Put all the ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
• Mix on low speed until ingredients are combined.
• Mix on high speed until soft peaks form, scraping sides of bowl often.
• Store tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
