I don't eat cow dairy but once a year on my pumpkin pie cuz I'm so sensitive to it, but boy does it feel satisfying on some deep level. This is for those special occasions when you want the real thing. It's not what you do occasionally that makes you what you are, it's what you do everyday, so enjoy!

Coconut Cream to come soon... In the lab as we speak!

2cups Organic Heavy Whipping Cream
1-3 drops Stevia
1 tsp. Vanilla
pinch of Sea Salt

Optional: 1 tbs. Coconut Sugar or other sweetener of choice

Electric or hand whisk.
Glass bowl -chilled in the freezer

NOTE about heavy cream products:

I've tried this recipe with 3 different companies.
Horizons Organic Pasturized Heavy Cream
Clover Organic Pasturized Heavy Cream
Raw Grass fed Heavy Cream in the photo

I wish I could say that I liked the raw grass fed one the best, but it made my stomach hurt. You have to try it for yourself to see what works for you, but here is a break down of the time it took to whip the cream:

Horizons took 10+ minutes. I actually almost gave up. Thinking "How did they ever invent whipped cream? If I had to do this by hand, I'd have given up by now!"

Clover took the least time, about 2 minutes and tasted and felt the best in my body.

The Raw Grass Fed one in the picture above took about 5 minutes and like I said, sadly didn't work for my body. Please try for yourself as this one is the best quality you can get. (unfortunately $9 for 12 oz., too!!!)

Place your bowl in the freezer for 5-10 min. to get it nice and cold.

Then pour your cream in and start-a-whippin'!

Picture
When the cream just begins to turn from liquid to beginning firm, then add your other ingredients and continue to whip. You're almost there...

Picture
Depending on how firm you like your whipped cream, stop when you reach that perfect place. It will hold in the fridge for 8-10 hours, but will start to separate a bit after that. I've heard you can freeze it to help it stay together, but it never lasts that long at my house!

A simple light dessert is just layering berries in the cream and topping with lemon zest or spices. Super Yummm!
