Here’s how to freeze it!
I know, I know.
Who in the world has a problem with leftover whipped cream?

Do you throw it away?
Do you save it, knowing that it will likely lose its billowy magic over the next few days?
Let me offer a third option: Freeze your leftover whipped cream for later.

Whipped cream freezesand thawssurprisingly well.
Just drop mounds of it onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and freeze overnight.
When a situation arises for a few spoonfuls of whipped cream, just pull out what you need.

The frozen edges also have a tendency to crumble as you handle them, as well.
For those, I’d recommend making a fresh batch of whipped cream.
Aim for single-serving portions.

Put in the freezer overnight, until the whipped cream is frozen solid.
Transfer the frozen whipped cream mounds to a freezer bag or other freezer container.
Don’t worry if the edges crumble a little as you handle the mounds; this is normal.
The whipped cream is best used within a month, but will keep for up to three months.
(You may notice that it picks up off-flavors from the freezer over time.)
The frozen whipped cream can be placed directly on top of hot cocoa or coffee and served.
