Whipped Cream Recipe

3 cups heavy cream
Half of a 3-oz package of vanilla or white chocolate instant pudding mix
1/3 cup icing sugar, also called confectioners sugar, or powdered sugar

Alternately:
4 cups heavy cream
One 3-oz box instant pudding mix

Whip ingredients together until stiff peaks form.

(The instant pudding mix is to make the cream more firm so piped decorations do not wilt and will hold their shapes.)

Tips:  If using food coloring, use White Chocolate Instant Pudding Mix as it's whiter than the Vanilla flavor and better for adding coloring.
If not adding food coloring, can substitute other flavored pudding mix thus making Chocolate Whippted Cream, or Pistachio Whipped Cream, etc
