I have used this mascarpone whipped cream on cupcakes and cakes, and I love it. It's light and fluffy and delicious. It takes like whipped cream, but the addition of mascarpone makes it more stable, so the frosting holds itself a lot better than plain whipped cream. It's perfect for anything that involves fruit, and it'd be great with chocolate cake, too. And the best part about this mascarpone frosting ? The recipe doesn't involve softening butter or cooking egg whites in a bain-marie, and you'll only need four ingredients !

First, you want to stick your bowl, heavy cream and hand- or stand-mixer whisk attachments in the freezer for about 10 minutes, so everything is cold. Once the ten minutes have passed, take everything out of the freezer, add some icing sugar and vanilla extract to the heavy cream and start your mixer on low speed before switching to medium speed. You want the cream to be forming firm peaks : put the whisk attachments upside down, the whipped cream should form a peak that doesn't lose its shape. You can then add in the (room temperature !) mascarpone, and whip on medium speed until the frosting is firm. That's it ! Keep the mascarpone whipped cream in the fridge until you're ready to use it, either to frost a cake or to pipe on cupcakes.
