If you have decided against going out to an overcrowded, noisy restaurant to celebrate with a loved one, and are looking for ideas to impress, try this simple recipe for liquor infused whipped creams. These delicious whipped creams are great as toppings for sweets, pastries, and of course the traditional Valentine’s Day favorite, fresh strawberries.
Ingredients:
1 Pint Heavy Whipping Cream
4 Ounces of Confectioners’ Sugar
2 Ounces of Your Favorite Liquor
Simple Directions:
In a mixer, combine heavy cream and confectioners’ sugar and mix on a high speed until stiff peaks form. Gently beat in liquor. Make sure not to over-beat, cream will then become lumpy and butter-like. Finish your whipped cream with a topping that is complimentary to whatever alcohol you use.
