I tried to make whipped cream today in my food processor. All was going fine and dandy but I wasn't sure if my cream was whipped enough so I let the whipping action continue. JD comes over and looks into the food processor and tells me that I should probably turn it off because it was beginning to look stiff. I said nah I still need to hold out for those peaks the instructions mention. Well, a few secs later the cream starts to seperate. JD then comments on how it looks like I'm starting to make butter and sure enough I was scooping out butter. I let the cream whip for too long. There is a fine line between whipped cream and butter... a fine line.
