Gradually beat in whipping cream, beating on high speed about 2 minutes or until stiff peaks form. Spread cream mixture over top of cake; sprinkle with cocoa. Store covered in refrigerator.

  • Instead of brandy, you can use 1 1/2 teaspoons of brandy extract plus 1/4 cup water.
  • Keep the topping smooth and creamy by adding the whipping cream gradually to the cream cheese mixture.
