Equipment

  • Hand mixer

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup aquafaba (liquid from 1 can of chickpeas)
  • 1/8 tsp cream of tartar
  • 1/2 - 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp  teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • First, drain the liquid from a can of chickpeas into a large bowl. Now add 1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar to that liquid, and beat it slowly with a hand mixer. Reserve the leftover chickpeas for another time.
  • Next, in about 30 seconds, you’ll see the aquafaba beginning to foam. Turn the speed to high and beat until stiff peaks form about 4-5 minutes. Since you’re using cream of tartar, it won’t take long to form those gorgeous, stiff peaks. Now, turn off the mixer.
  • Then, add the powdered sugar to your liking (1/2-3/4 cup) and one teaspoon vanilla. Now fire up your mixer again and beat until fluffy and smooth, about 1 minute. The incredibly stiff, fluffy peaks will have formed by this time, and there you have vegan whipped cream!
