Whisk till well combined. Fill whipping cream to the fill line of the whipper. Screw on the top. Insert the CO2 cartridge till it empties, unscrew that. Put the nozzle on, shake a few times and squirt away. It makes a ton, store it in the fridge for up to 10 days just give it another few shakes before squirting. Soooo good.

Bake at 350 for 10 minutes. Allow to cool for a minute or two before removing from pan. Dip in SF Chocolate Glaze. Glaze will harden as they cool or speed it up in the fridge.

I highly recommend heading outside for a break mid day. My work has me staring at a computer screen for a big portion of the day. Taking an outside break even if it's only 15 minutes... breathing fresh air, soaking in some sunshine and Vit. D is therapeutic. It makes me happy.
