Look for double cream, or something above 36% butterfat. Whipped cream is foam stabilized by fat, so the more fat the more firm. Homemade whipped cream will never be as stiff as Cool Whip, though you can make stabilized whipped cream using gelatin.<BR/><BR/>Ewokgirl- thanks, I think these would be great with vanilla cookies and white chocolate. The only caveat would be white chocolate is very sweet, so watch the sugar levels to prevent it from being sticky-cloying sweet.<BR/><BR/>Jerry- actually, Reeese's pb cups have pb on the inside and chocolate on the outside, so this isn't inside out. Inside out would have pb on the outside- a good idea for someone wanting to play around!<BR/><BR/>Charlotte- thanks, I say don't wait for an excuse!Mercedeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00097330009175643958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5262628558438346351.post-60631322037867350252007-10-04T08:19:00.000-05:002007-10-04T08:19:00.000-05:00Yea for puppies!
