Whipped Topping

3/4 cup nonfat dried milk

Whipped Cream Topping

(2 cups) 1 pint whipping cream
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (Other extracts or flavorings such as mint, strawberry, or chocolate can be used as well)
This will whip up and come together quicker and better if all ingredients, as well as the bowl are chilled. Whip all ingredients together until firm peaks form. Start slowly - Set the mixer so it goes as fast as possible without splashing.

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (Other extracts or flavorings such as mint, strawberry, or chocolate can be used as well)
