Sweetened Cream

This is a basic recipe for whipped, sweetened cream with a touch of vanilla. It's called for as a filling in The Perfect Chocolate Cake recipe. While very tasty and the height of luxury, as a filling, I can't give it the highest marks. It looks spectacular when the cake is sliced making two bold, thick white dividers in between the dark cake layers. But as it warms up, those layers get mighty slippery and the cake threatens to slide into separate layers. It would make a better frosting I think.
