One cup heavy cream makes how many cups when whipped?

Answer 1

1 cup heavy whipping cream will make 2 cups when whipped.

Be sure to use regular cream, not whippingcream.

Whip till stiff peaks are formed, then stop.

DO NOT over beat, it may separate, and can form a butter-like consistency.

To help keep stiff & hold volume,

add:

~ 3 to 4 tablespoons confectioner's sugar as your beating or

~ 3 to 5+ tablespoons dry vanilla flavored instant pudding as your beating or

~ 2 to 4 tablespoons powdered dry milk

Also, Jello Gelatin can be added. I've used 2+ tablespoons flavored Jello dissolved in 3+ tablespoon hot water, stirred well, cooled slightly & beat in just as soft peaks are forming. I use strawberry for Strawberry shortcake, lime for whipped cream on Key Lime pie, orange for Pineapple Upside Down Cake, etc.. Use your imagination. Regular gelatin by Knox makes an excellent, stiff whipped cream. It needs to be spread quickly as it sets up quickly.
