not to add too much air, which can cause cracking.

For best results, use heavy cream, cold from the refrigerator, for whipped cream.

For best results, whip egg whites in a spotlessly clean stainless steel or glass mixing bowl. If available, use a copper mixing bowl. Chocolate chips, nuts, raisins, etc. can be added using speeds 1 or 2 of your hand mixer.

To separate eggs for any recipe, break them one at a time into a small bowl, gently remove yolks, then transfer egg whites to spotlessly clean mixing bowl. If a yolk breaks into the egg white, reserve that one for another use. Just a drop of egg yolk in the white will pre- vent the whites from whipping properly.

To achieve the best volume when whipping egg whites, the mixing bowl and beaters must be spotlessly clean and free of any fat, oil, etc. (Plastic bowls are not recommended for whip- ping egg whites.) The presence of any trace of fat or oil will prevent the egg whites from increasing in volume. Wash bowl and attachments thoroughly before beginning again.

Occasionally ingredients may stick to the sides of the mixing bowl. When this occurs, turn mixer off and scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
