If I Don't Have Heavy Whipping Cream What Could I Use?

Question

I have to make a recipie that calls for Heavy Whipping Cream would I be able to sub. milk for this product???? HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

If you're going to try to whip it, you can't substitute anything else. But if you're just making a sauce, you could substitute half & half; it will be a bit thinner, and certainly lower in fat, but it should work all right. Using regular milk will make it even lighter, thinner, and possibly not quite right.

Answer 2

Since only heavy or whipping cream have enough butter fat, it will be hard to come up with a good substitute. It's the butter fat that gives the air bubbles their structure. If you're making a sauce and not whipping the cream, you still need enough fat to keep the sauce from breaking. You can boil heavy cream and it won't separate, but light cream will.

Answer 3

For cream-based sauces, you can get away with combining roughly one part butter to four parts skim milk. Heat the butter over a low heat until it's just barely melted; slowly add the milk, stirring constantly so the milk and butter don't seperate.

Note: Use real dairy butter, not margarine. And this only works for sauces, you can't make whipped cream this way.

Answer 4

1 cup of whipping cream = 1/3 cup butter and 3/4 cup milk
