Whip together the heavy cream and vanilla until soft peaks form.
In a separate bowl blend together the rest of the ingredients until smooth then fold in the whipped cream.
Give it a taste, if you think it needs to be sweeter you can add a little more maple syrup or stevia or a little powdered sugar. We usually add about 10 drops of liquid stevia, and that does the trick.
