I picked up some fresh local strawberries from Adams Berry Farm, and decided to serve them for dessert with some homemade whipped cream. This whipped cream is called Creme Chantilly, but is a lot simpler to make than it sounds.Take 1/2 cup cold heavy cream and pour into the bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment (or you can do it by hand, which takes a little longer and requires more effort). Add a splash of vanilla extract and 2 tbsp powdered sugar and whip on high speed until the cream thickens noticeably. Careful though - if you whip for too long, it will turn to butter (if whipping by hand, do not worry - this is unlikely). Serve the cold cream with the strawberries. Enjoy!
Note 1 - If you find that 1/2 cup of cream sits too low in the bowl for the mixer's whisk to reach. just add a little more.
Note 2 - Metric info: 1/2 cup = 120 ml.
