Ingredients

1 ½ cups cold heavy whipping cream
2 Tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch fine sea salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

Add the whipping cream and brown sugar to a large mixing bowl or the bowl of an electric mixer.
With a whisk attachment, beginning beating the cream and sugar together on medium speed. At first it will be frothy and foamy. After about 2 minutes, it will look slightly thickened, but still very soft and floppy.
Pause the mixer, and add the cinnamon, sea salt, and vanilla (if using). Beat on medium speed another 1-2 minutes, or until the whipped cream is fluffy and voluminous and can hold a soft peak.
Serve the whipped cream immediately or refrigerate in a sealed container until ready to serve.
To pipe the whipped cream, transfer it to a piping bag fitted with an open star tip, then chill in the fridge for 15-20 minutes before piping.

Notes

Heavy whipping cream and heavy cream both work well for this recipe. These are different than the cream labeled just "whipping cream."
Whipped cream is best served within 24 hours, but I've seen it keep well, stored in an airtight container in the fridge, for up to 4 days.
If you overwhip the cream and it becomes dense and heavy, gently fold in a splash of additional cream. If that doesn't work, you can still use the whipped cream, it just acts more like a butter than whipped cream. Perfect for toast, pancakes, and scones!
You can add more or less cinnamon and sugar to this, to your tastes. You can also substitute sifted powdered sugar if you prefer. As is, this a lightly sweetened whipped cream.
