Pour your cream into a bowl, add your sugar and vanilla extract.
Using a hand whisk or an electric mixer, whisk the cream until it thickens.
Once you start to see patterns forming in the cream, stop the whisking and switch to a silicon spatula, and whip it until you reach the required thickness.
If you go too far with your mixer, you can salvage it by adding 2 tsp of milk at a time until it softens up again.
Cover your whipped Chantilly cream with cling film, and refrigerate.
This cream can be made well in advance, even the day before you make your recipe.
Whipped or Chantilly cream, is a delicious, versatile, and handy filling for, cakes, doughnuts, trifles, flans, scones, to name but a few.
Enjoy.
