Mmmm. Whipped cream

  I haven't posted in a while, and my first post back is going to be a quicky about breakfast.  What can ya do?  I just wanted to share this delicious and fast recipe with anyone out there who might want to try it.  It's meant to be for crepes, but if you're in a bind it can be used on nearly anything.  My husband who is gluten intolerant loves to just eat a bowl of it!  We also use this around the house for any desert dish that you would normally put store bought whipped cream on.
 
  You will need:

 A bowl

 Hand blender with whisk attachment or a hand held whisk

heavy whipping cream*

Jam/Jelly/ or fruit

*If you are using ultra pasteurized cream a metal bowl may make things go faster, but I used plastic and it worked just fine.  I put the bowl and the whisk in the freezer for 3 minutes before starting.

Just whip the cream, starting on your lowest setting.  You can work up through the speeds as you see it begin to thicken.  Stop once it maintains it's shape from the whisk.  You don't want to go too far and make butter!  The whisk is a great distraction while you get anything else ready. The cat can even enjoy it. :)

Many recipes recommend adding vanilla, sugar, splenda, etc. at this point.  I don't.  Go on and try a bite, it is plenty yummy all on it's own.  If you want at this point go on and add your fruit choice.    We put it on waffles this morning because the bean was too hungry to wait for me to make crepes and she loved it!

She was humming mmm mmmm mmm sounds as she ate.

If anyone thinks of other things to add, please, feel free to share!
