Sprinkle your gelatin over the water and let bloom for 5 minutes.

Melt gelatin for 5 seconds in the microwave. If not fully melted do another 3 seconds. You can tell gelatin is melted when there are no granules of unmelted gelatin visible.After dissolving your gelatin, add in 1 tsp of heavy cream and mix. If your gelatin is too cold, heat again until its melted (5 seconds).

In a cold mixing bowl, whip your heavy for 15 seconds on medium speed until its foamy

Add in your powdered sugar and vanilla and continue mixing on medium speed until you reach very soft peaks, barely holding their shape.

Turn your mixer down to low and drizzle in your gelatin. Continue mixing on medium speed until your peaks are firm and holding their shape but dont over-mix to the point when your whipped cream starts to look chunky or begins turning into butter.

If piping, use immediately.
