Chocolate Whipped Cream recipe

Totally coincidence, but I'm starting this year off with another sweet recipe.
Last year's first post: No-Bake Mini Nutella Cheesecake Pie

Look, if you accidentally added whipped cream to my drink after I already said no, I just want you to know that inside I am crying tears of joy because of your mistake ;)

I actually don't remember setting any new year's goals since becoming a mom, but I know a lot of people always have diet and fitness on the top of their list almost every year. I saw on TV a little while ago that January 17 is Ditch Your New Year's Resolutions Day. Won't you try this delicious chocolate whipped cream with your strawberries or top your healthy shake with it? I'm here in the corner snickering followed by an evil laugh. Just kidding! Moderation is the key ;)

But seriously, this chocolate whipped cream is yummy and super easy to make! Spread it on some angel food cake for a simple snack. Or, eat it by the spoonful like my kid and I do. No judgement.


Chocolate Whipped Cream
ingredients:
• 1½ cups heavy cream
• 3 tbsp powdered sugar
• 2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

instructions:
1)  Add all of the ingredients, except vanilla extract, in a mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer with the whisk attachment to whip the mixture, starting on low speed and working your way up to medium speed as the ingredients become more incorporated.
2)  Just before reaching desired peaks, preferably medium to stiff peaks, pour in the vanilla extract and whip until you reach your desired peaks.
tip: After adding in the vanilla extract, it shouldn't take much longer so check after a few seconds of whipping.
3)  Serve as you wish, or cover and chill until ready to serve. It will keep in the fridge for 3 days.
