Arrange Lucky Charms marshmallows over the frosting. Set aside.
2. Make whipped cream – In the meantime, add the whipping cream powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment or mixing bowl. Beat the ingredients together, starting on low speed and increasing to high slowly as it begins to firm up. Beat until stiff peaks form. Transfer mixture to a piping bag fitted with a star tip and set aside.
