Step 1: In chilled glass bowl, add sugar to whipping cream.

I like to put my bowl in the freezer beforehand.

Step 2: Using a whisk or hand mixer, incorporate sugar into heavy whipping cream until it begins to thicken, leaving visible trails.

Continue to whip until soft peaks start to form.

Step 3: Fold in vanilla extract or liqueur.

Serve immediately or refrigerate and remix 1-2 minutes before serving.
