Cinnamon Basil Infused Whipped Cream Recipes

CINNAMON WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Pour heavy cream into chilled glass bowl (I use a small but deep glass bowl).
• Beat on high speed.
• Slowly add sugar, cinnamon and vanilla.
• Continue beating until stiff peaks form.
• Tip: When making whipped cream I dampen a paper towel with vinegar and wipe the inside of a glass bowl with it.
• Continue to wipe until dry and place inside freezer with beaters or whisk.
• Leave in freezer for 10 minutes to chill then use to make whipped cream.

CINNAMON-BUTTERMILK WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Add the heavy cream and buttermilk to a large bowl and beat with an electric mixer until foamy. Gradually add the sugar and cinnamon while beating, then continue to beat until soft peaks form.

CINNAMON BASIL-INFUSED WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Wrap basil leaves in a towel and roll a rolling pin over them once or twice to bruise them slightly. Heat cream over medium-high heat until it begins to boil, stirring constantly so cream does not scald. Add basil leaves and cinnamon stick, submerging them in cream. Turn off heat.
• Cover tightly and let sit for a half-hour. Strain, pressing out juice in leaves. Refrigerate until very cold, about 6 hours. Place cold cream and sugar in a mixer and whip until it forms peaks.

BOURBON WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, whip cream until soft mounds form. Gradually add sugar, whipping until cream forms stiff peaks. Gently fold in bourbon. Chill until ready to serve.

CINNAMON BASIL ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Bring the milk to a simmer in a medium-sized saucepan.
• Stir in the basil and cinnamon stick, cover, and remove from heat.
• Steep 15 minutes, then pour the milk through a sieve, pressing down on the solids to extract all the liquid.
• Whisk together the egg yolks and sugar in a large mixing bowl.
• Whisk the cinnamon-basil flavored milk.
• Pour it back into the saucepan and stir constantly with a rubber spatula over medium heat just until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (180 degrees) but no further or it may curdle.
• Pour the custard back into the mixing bowl and cool, either over ice or in the refrigerator, until the custard is very cold.
• Whisk in the heavy cream.
• Freeze in an ice cream maker.
• Store in a covered container in the freezer until firm enough to scoop.

INFUSED WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Stir chosen infusion ingredients into cream in a measuring cup or lidded container. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours and up to 8 (the longer the mixture sits, the more intense the flavor will be).
• Strain cream through a fine-mesh sieve and into a medium bowl, discarding solids. Beat cream to stiff peaks, adding sugar to taste.
