Coffee Whipped Cream

Hello Everyone, how was your 4th of July weekend?

I took 3 days off to spend time with my family and friends over the 4th of July weekend.

I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday weekend too.

While I am not drinking coffee or caffeine-anything while I am pregnant, that's not stopping me from developing recipes or making recipes with coffee in them for others to enjoy 😉

And make I will...

Have you seen my No-Churn Coffee Ice Cream recipe?

That and my Vanilla Whipped Cream recipe were the inspiration for this Coffee Whipped Cream recipe.

Ingredients for Coffee Whipped Cream

• 1 pint (2 cups) heavy whipping cream, I prefer and recommend organic
• ⅛ teaspoon cream of tartar, optional
• 1 packet Starbucks Via Italian Roast  (I use 1 packet) or 3.3 grams instant coffee

Kitchen Tools

• mixing bowl
• electric hand mixer
• measuring spoons and cups
• wet measure

Web Story

You could even pipe this on top of a cake or cupcakes.

I would suggest using the cream of tartar to stabilize the whipped cream if you do so that it keeps it's shape.

Coffee Whipped Cream is a wonderful, creamy topping over a dessert that goes with its coffee flavor, delicious over hot or iced coffee drinks.

Ingredients

• 1 pint heavy whipping cream (2 cups), I suggest using organic
• 2 tablespoons confectioner's sugar
• 1 packet (3.3 grams) Starbucks Via Italian Roast (instant coffee), or same amount regular instant coffee
• ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar, optional to use for best results, helps stabilize the whipped cream

Instructions

1. For best results, put your metal mixing bowl in your freezer for 10-15 minutes.
2. Using a hand or stand electric mixer, mix heavy whipping cream until bubbles start to form.
3. Add the confectioner's sugar, Starbucks Via (or same amount regular instant coffee), and cream of tartar (optional) on medium-high until stiff peaks form, this should only take a few minutes.
4. Serve with your favorite dessert or on a cup of iced or hot coffee and enjoy!

Notes

If piping over cake or cupcakes, I would suggest using the cream of tartar to stabilize the whipped cream if you do so that it keeps its shape.
