Summer Essential. ⁠
Berries & Whipped Cream⁠

Why not whip up a bowl of pillowy cream while your berries chill in the refrigerator? ⁠
⁠
Whipped Cream ⁠
1 cup heavy cream, chilled⁠
2 tablespoons powdered sugar⁠
1 teaspoon vanilla⁠
⁠
Place ingredients in chilled bowl. Using a mixer, whip on medium-high until soft peaks form, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator next to the berries. 🍓⁠

Summer is all about Slaw.⁠
