Honey is a natural sweetener, while brown sugar can be less expensive.

Pour 2 cups of cold heavy whipping cream into the bowl of your stand mixer.

Add 1/4 cup of powdered sugar to the cream.

Start mixing on low speed, then increase to high, covering to prevent splatter.

Watch closely to avoid over-whipping, which can cause the cream to curdle.

Once the cream is whipped to a soft peak, reserve about 2/3 cup of it for flavoring.

Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract to the remaining whipped cream and mix for about 10 seconds.

To stabilize the whipped cream, add mascarpone cheese, mixing gently to combine without over-mixing.

Fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone until uniform in texture.
