Steps to Make Authentic Vanilla Ice Cream

Vanilla Chantilly Cream

When prepared in an authentic way (with no cheap substitutes), vanilla ice cream can be absolutely delicious already on its own.

Recipe Summary Vanilla Chantilly Cream

This 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.

Ingredients | Authentic Vanilla Ice Cream

½ vanilla bean

1 cup heavy whipping cream

2 tablespoons superfine sugar

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Split vanilla bean lengthwise with the tip of a sharp knife. Holding the pod open, scrape seeds from each half using the flat side of the knife. Transfer seeds to a large bowl; discard pod.

Pour heavy cream over vanilla seeds. Add sugar and vanilla extract. Whip with an electric mixer until soft peaks form, 3 to 5 minutes. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until serving.

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

Use regular white sugar instead of superfine sugar if desired.

If you over-whip the cream and it becomes stiff, just add a bit more heavy whipping cream and whip softly by hand to reconstitute. You ain't makin' butter... rather a sweet cream.
