Easy Homemade Whipped Cream Leftovers?

Store in an airtight container and keep it in the coldest part of your refrigerator. This is best enjoyed within 1 day, but will keep for up to 3 days (see tip below).

Kitchen Ready Betty tip: The longer whipped cream sits, the less "fluffy" it will be. You may choose to use 1-2 tablespoons of confectioner's sugar instead of the white granulated sugar when making this, which will help to stabilize the whipped cream so it keeps in tact for a little longer.
