Instructions
Preparation Steps
Chill a metal mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 10 minutes.
Beat the cold cream on medium speed until slightly thickened and foamy.
Sprinkle in confectioners’ sugar, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and cream of tartar. Whip to soft peaks.
Add pumpkin puree and vanilla. Whip just to medium peaks, keeping the mixture light and airy.
Taste and adjust spice or sweetness. Serve right away or refrigerate up to 24 hours.
Notes
Tip: For a maple version, swap half the confectioners’ sugar for 1 tbsp maple syrup and whip to firm peaks. For extra stability, dissolve 1/2 tsp unflavored gelatin in 1 tbsp cold water, melt gently, cool, then stream in at soft peaks. Serve over pumpkin pie, waffles, or hot cocoa. Refrigerate in a covered container up to 2 days; rewhip briefly if it softens.This recipe is an original creation inspired by classic Pumpkin Whipped Cream Recipes flavors.
