Equipment

  • electric mixer
  • COLD mixing bowl

Ingredients

  • 1 pint heavy whipping cream - VERY COLD
  • ¾ cup confectioner’s sugar or to taste
  • ½ cup cocoa powder

Instructions

  • Place the bowl and the whip in the freezer for at least 15 minutes prior to starting.
  • Once the equipment is adequately chilled, add the heavy cream to the bowl and beat on medium-high speed with the whip attachment until it just starts to thicken. (you will see the tracks from the whip in the cream)
  • Slowly add the confectioner’s sugar and cocoa powder - mixing carefully at first so that it doesn’t fly out of the bowl. Once moistened - increase the speed and whip well until it reaches the desired consistency. Take care to not over-mix as this will turn it into butter.
  • Use immediately or chill any leftovers in the refrigerator. Keep in mind that it might deflate a bit after being stored.
