Default whipped cream - how much sugar per cup of heavy cream?

You should whip up some cream cheese in with the heavy cream and sugar else your frosting won't stand up for long.

here's a recipe that works well.

2 cups heavy cream
8 oz cream cheese - let soften
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla

If you have a KA or other stand mixer, use the whisk attachment. You can use a hand mixer as well.

whip the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla till fluffy and then add in the cream slowly till you get fairly stiff peaks.
