  3. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla, beating until combined.
  4. Microwave bloomed gelatin for 10 seconds until dissolved; cool slightly.
  5. In separate bowl, whip cream to soft peaks.

Notes

Temperature Matters: Always use room temperature cream cheese. Cold cream cheese creates lumps that won’t smooth out, no matter how long you beat it.
Gelatin Secrets: Never add hot gelatin directly to cold ingredients – it will seize. Always let it cool to room temperature first.
