- Be sure not to over-whip the cream, as you don’t want it to turn into butter. Soft peaks are enough to give the cream a nice, fluffy texture that will hold up but remain smooth.
3. Add the Sweetener and Coffee:
- Once your cream has reached soft peaks, add the powdered sugar and the coffee mixture you prepared earlier. Continue to mix for another 1-2 minutes until everything is fully incorporated, and the cream has a smooth, slightly thicker texture.
4. Serve and Enjoy:
- Once everything is well-mixed, your coffee cream is ready! Use it to top off your coffee, lattes, or any other dessert you wish. You can also store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
- For an extra flair, sprinkle some cocoa powder or cinnamon on top of your coffee cream before serving for an added touch of flavor.
Equipment Needed:
- Mixing bowl
- Electric hand mixer (optional, can use a whisk)

Recipe Variations:
-
Iced Coffee Cream:
You can turn this recipe into an iced coffee cream by using chilled coffee or espresso instead of instant coffee powder dissolved in water. Just be sure to cool it down before mixing it into the cream.Advertisement: -
Vegan Coffee Cream:
For a dairy-free version, substitute the heavy whipping cream with coconut cream or another non-dairy alternative. Ensure the cream has a high fat content to achieve a creamy texture. -
Flavored Coffee Cream:
To add extra flavor to your coffee cream, you can incorporate a few drops of vanilla extract or flavored syrups such as caramel or hazelnut while whipping the cream. This gives it a customizable touch to match your mood or the season. -
Mocha Coffee Cream:
For a chocolate twist, add 1-2 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder to the coffee mixture before dissolving it. This will give you a mocha-flavored cream, perfect for chocolate lovers! -
Spiced Coffee Cream:
Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the whipped cream for a spiced, warming version. This is ideal for autumn or holiday-themed drinks.Advertisement:
