Pumpkin spice whipped cream is the perfect topping for your favorite desserts. It only takes a few minutes and a handful of ingredients for delicious whipped cream that is so much better than store bought.
Add all of the ingredients (except pumpkin puree) to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Mix the ingredients on medium-high speed until medium peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. Be careful not to over-mix, or your whipped cream will become gritty. If you are worried you may over-mix, stop when soft peaks form and whisk by hand to reach medium peaks.
If you are using optional pumpkin puree, fold it into the whipped cream with a spatula until just combined.
Add your delicious homemade whipped cream to your favorite pumpkin recipes or your fall coffee and enjoy!
Notes
This recipe makes a lightly sweetened whipped cream. For a sweeter whipped cream more similar to store-bought in flavor, add 2-3 more tablespoons of powdered sugar.For best results, enjoy your whipped cream right away. Whipped cream will keep in the refrigerator for a day or two, but it will lose some of its volume and texture. If you are making your whipped cream ahead, I recommend giving it a quick whisk again before serving to help it regain some fluffiness.
