Add chilled heavy cream to a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, along with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
Using an electric hand mixer or the whisk attachment for a stand mixer, whip the cream and other ingredients on medium-high speed until moderate peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
