Equipment

  • Stand Mixer
  • Hand Mixer
  • Stainless Bowl
  • Wire Whisk

Ingredients

  • 12 oz Evaporated Milk (Can or Carton)
  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • Extracts/Lemon Juice (Optional)

Instructions

  • Decide on your mixing tools of choice, I recommend a stand mixer.
  • Place mixing bowl, whisk attachment, and evaporated milk into the freezer for 30 minutes.
    You want the milk and tools very cold.
  • Remove tools and milk from the freezer and assemble them onto the mixer.
  • Pour the cold evaporated milk into the bowl.
  • Beat on medium-high speed for about a minute. You'll notice it has doubled and tripled in size and becoming frothy.
  • Add the powdered sugar and mix in's like vanilla extract, if preferred.
  • Beat until thick and fluffy about 1-2 minutes. I like to see stiff peaks.
  • Best if served immediately, because it starts to deflate after 30 minutes. Enjoy.
