  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup eggnog
  • 1/2 teaspoon rum extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Chill Equipment: Place a metal bowl and the whisk attachment from your mixer in the freezer for 10 minutes to ensure the cream whips up light and fluffy.

  3. Initial Mixing: Beat the mixture on low speed, allowing all ingredients to blend smoothly together. Use a spatula to scrape the sides of the bowl to incorporate all ingredients evenly.
  4. Whip to Texture: Increase the mixer speed and continue beating until the mixture thickens and becomes creamy, forming soft peaks suitable for piping.

Notes

  • For best results, ensure the cream and bowl are well chilled before whipping to achieve a stable texture.
  • Use fresh eggnog for optimal flavor; store-bought varieties work well too.
  • Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of powdered sugar to taste.
  • This whipped cream can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours but is best used fresh.
  • Be careful not to overbeat as it can turn into butter.
