Bourbon Whipped Cream

 
This year Michael and I hosted Thanksgiving for my family. We were a little bit worried about preparing all of the dishes in our tiny oven and having everything warm at the same time. We ended up eating a little bit later than we were planning but everything worked out really well. I am already looking forward to the next time we get to host!
 
We tried to make everything from scratch, but didn't go crazy about it. This whipped cream recipe was one that Michael was especially excited about. It was a nice excuse to have a good bottle of bourbon around the apartment. It turned out really well and I was surprised just how easy it was to make.
 
Original Recipe can be found here.
 
Ingredients
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons premium bourbon (we used Turkey)
 
In a medium bowl, whip cream with a hand mixer until soft mounds form.
 
 
Gradually add sugar, whipping until cream forms stiff peaks (see Michael's finger above pointing to the stiff peaks).

 
Using a spatula, gently fold in the bourbon. Chill until ready to serve.
 
Enjoy!
