Method
- Add the cold heavy cream to a chilled mixing bowl along with the confectioner's sugar and whip on high speed (level 8 on my Kitchen Aid mixer) until it forms soft peaks.At soft peaks the whipped cream should flop over slightly when inverted (similar to a Santa's hat).
 - Once the heavy cream has reached soft peaks add all the mascarpone cheese (and vanilla if using) and whip again until stiff peaks. This should only take 10-20 seconds.
 - Use as desired.If not using immediately store in an air-tight container for up to 2 weeks. Whip again for about 30 seconds before use to smoothen again.
 
Notes
- Gradually bring your mixer up to high speed to avoid heavy cream splashing out of the bowl.
