After the bowl and beaters have cooled, add in the heavy cream and whip until stiff peaks form. Whip the cream until it forms soft peaks using a hand mixer or stand mixer with the whisk attachment on medium-high speed. Overwhipping can cause gritty texture and stiff peaks, so be careful.
Whisk in Sweetened Condensed Milk: When the cream has soft peaks, slowly pour in the sweetened condensed milk while whisking constantly. The dish will be sweeter and creamier with the addition of sweetened condensed milk, which also helps to solidify the whipped cream.

Integrate Vanilla Extract: Gradually whisk in the vanilla extract while beating the mixture to a thick, velvety peaks-holding whipped cream. The dessert’s flavor and scent will be elevated with the addition of vanilla essence.
Set and Chill: Spoon the whipped topping into a platter or individual dessert cups. Put the dish or glasses in the fridge for at least two or three hours, or until the dessert has set and cooled completely. The flavors can combine and the dessert can harden up to a creamy consistency while it chills.
