Frozen Coconut Whipped Cream Drops

     Pinterest does it again. I saw these floating around and decided that I just HAD to make them. Frozen whipped cream to keep on hand during hot chocolate season?? That simply cannot be be a bad thing. Only thing better? Frozen coconut whipped cream to keep on hand. You know something is a real winner when it makes you talk dirty to it after tasting it. "Ohhhhh my GOD, you are one delicious bitch!!!" seriously came out of my mouth after giving these babies a taste.
YOU WILL NEED:
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 Tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp coconut extract
DIRECTIONS:
  1. In a medium sized bowl, beat your COLD heavy cream on low speed for 2 minutes. Bump the speed up to medium and beat until it starts to thicken up quite a bit. You are looking for the soft peak stage where when you lift the (turned off) beaters out of the cream, the mixture stands but the tips still fall a bit.
  2. Add your Tbsp of powdered sugar and your coconut extract and continue beating on medium speed until stiff peak stage. You will know you have hit the stiff peaks stage when you turn off the beaters and lift them out of the whipped cream and the mixture stands at attention without falling. They are... well.. stiff peaks. lol
  3. Add whipped cream to a piping bag fitted with desired tip. Pipe little drops onto a cookie sheet. I used the bottom of my spring form pan because I didn't have room to fit a big ass cookie sheet in my freezer at the moment.
  4. Let set in the freezer for several hours. When fully frozen, remove and store in the freezer in an airtight container or ziploc bag. 
     Next time you have some hot chocolate, pull out one (or two) of these frozen little clouds of coconut goodness and drop it right on into your cup. Ahhhh. Life is good. :)
