Fresh whipped cream recipe

This is seriously the easiest "pastry" oriented thing you can make and once you do, you'll never go back to Cool Whip or Redi Whip.   You need 2 ingredients, a stainless steel bowl and at the least, a hand mixer.

Ingredients:
1 cup Heavy cream
1/3 cup Confectioners sugar

Method:
1.  Place stainless steel bowl and whisk attachment(s) of mixer in freezer for 2 minutes.

2.  In stainless steel bowl, combine cream and sugar.  Mix on high until stiff peaks form.

That's it.  That's whipped cream.

If you wanted to make it more interesting, you could certainly add a touch of something here and there. 

Lemon zest, orange zest, vanilla extract, almond extract, raspberry extract, coconut extract, lime zest, cinnamon, chocolate syrup, etc.  These all pair well with whipped cream and can be added to the stainless steel bowl while whipping.
