When my Chocolate Whiskey Bundt Cake called for lightly sweetened whipped cream to go alongside, I did what any responsible person would do - I added bourbon to it!

This whipped cream definitely packs a punch. If you want a more subtle flavor, start with 1 tablespoon of bourbon and see if you want to add another shot or three 😉

Bourbon Whipped Cream

Course: Condiments

Ingredients

2 cups 1 pint heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 tablespoons premium bourbon I prefer Maker's Mark

Method

Pour cream into a large bowl and whip with a hand mixer (or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment) on medium-high speed. Once it starts to thicken, slowly add sugar until fully incorporated.
Add vanilla and bourbon and whip until stiff peaks form, being careful not to over-mix (or you'll end up with bourbon butter, which actually sounds pretty good... I'll file that away for future use).
Serve immediately.
