Chantilly cream is a sweeter version of whipped cream. It is smooth and satiny. My family loves it on pancakes, chocolate mousse, and just about anything that needs a sweet touch. Enjoy, from my family to yours!

Recipe Tips

Use regular white sugar instead of superfine sugar if desired.

If you overbeat the cream and it becomes stiff, just add a bit more heavy whipping cream and whip softly by hand to reconstitute.

For almond Chantilly cream, use 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract instead of vanilla extract.
