Notes

If you'd like to make your own whipped cream you'll need
  • 2 cups cold heavy whipping cream
  • 1 1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar
  • 1 lemon- zest and juice (just for this particular dessert) Normally you'd add vanilla extract instead)
In a large bowl with a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat the heavy whipping cream on low, gradually increasing the speed until you have stiff peaks. Add in the lemon juice and zest and mix. Slowly add in the powdered sugar while mixing until fully incorporated.
