Wonderful light whipped cream icing. Not sweet sweet like traditional but you can adjust how sweet by adding a bit more sugar.. It's a bit sturdier with the added cornstarch over just whipped cream.. Does not affect the flavor. Still needs to be refrigerated but holds up very well. If flavoring add flavor when you add the sugar

How To Make whipped cream icing

Step 1

Place mixing bowl in freezer for 30 minutes

Step 2

Pour COLD cream into cold mixing bowl and whip until thickened but not stiff
Step 3

Depending on sweetness add minimum of 1/3 cup of powdered sugar and cornstarch sifted into whipped cream. Continue to mix but lower speed after adding sugar so as not to make a sugar cloud flying in face. Once it's mixed in a little turn the speed up and whip until stiff peaks form. Ice cake or cupcakes
Step 4

If adding flavor add when adding sugar and cornstarch. Chocolate I add 1/3 c coco powder
