Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups very fresh heavy cream, well chilled
  • 1 T. confectioners' sugar, sifted
  • 1/2 - 1 t. vanilla extract

Directions

Put the cream into a well-chilled bowl with the sugar and vanilla extract to taste, then whip until the cream forms soft peaks, or a little thicker if required for piping.

This is what the author has to say about Religieuse: Two-tiered choux puffs, which acquired their name from the fact that they look like nuns. These are filled with a coffee-flavored cream patissiere, and ices with a coffee glacH icing. They may also be filled with cream and coated with chocolate icing if preferred.
