I haven't made whipped cream in donkey's years, but I grew up making whipped cream using a handcrank eggbeater. A splash of vanilla, and I think some sugar? Wish I could remember. Sunday dinner desserts of cream puffs (oh my gosh, were they ever good!) or glorious strawberry shortcake...even a simple yellow cake with a dusting of confectioner's sugar and then split, with a dollop of whipped cream in the middle...oh my. I'm glad you brought this up! Maybe I need to dust off my eggbeater.
