Start with a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.

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

Turn the mixer on full speed and let it whip for about 1.5 to 2 minutes until it starts to thicken.

Check the consistency; it should be light and fluffy, not dripping off the whisk.

Add 1/4 cup of icing sugar gradually while mixing on low speed.

Increase the speed back up and whip for an additional 10 to 15 seconds until the desired consistency is reached.

Transfer the whipped cream to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 hours.

For the handheld mixer method, place a metal or glass bowl in the freezer before starting.

Remove the bowl from the freezer and pour in 2 cups of whipping cream.

Turn the handheld mixer on full speed and whip until it thickens, checking the consistency periodically.

Once it starts to thicken, add 1/4 cup of icing sugar and mix well.

Optionally, add vanilla extract, preferably clear vanilla to avoid changing the color.
