To thicken whipped cream frosting, ensure the mixing bowl, beaters, and cream are well-chilled before starting, as this helps the cream whip up more quickly and hold its shape better. Use heavy whipping cream with at least 36% fat content for better stability. Incorporate stabilizers like powdered sugar (which contains cornstarch), a teaspoon of unflavored gelatin dissolved in cold water and gently heated, 1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar per cup of cream, or a tablespoon of instant vanilla pudding mix per cup of cream. Whip the cream until stiff peaks form, being careful not to overwhip. Additionally, you can fold in thickening agents like mascarpone or cream cheese after reaching soft peaks, or add 1-2 tablespoons of cornstarch per cup of cream for extra thickness without altering the taste. These tips will help achieve a thicker, more stable whipped cream frosting suitable for cakes, cupcakes, and other desserts. :):)

To thicken whipped cream frosting, gradually add powdered sugar while whipping until it reaches your desired consistency. You can also use stabilized whipped cream for a firmer texture.
