Whipped Topping Substitute

"This is a simple recipe, containing no fat! None! So go ahead and have your dessert. You could use Splenda instead of the sugar.This is not supposed to rival Cool Whip, but it is one way to be able to at least enjoy your dessert. I have not tried it with Splenda(or other sugar substitutes) but imagine it would work. Remember to put your bowl and the beaters to your electric mixer in the freezer for at lease 30 minutes before beginning this recipe. Note: I use Carnation non-fat dry milk powder, and suggest you use a good product like it to get the best results."

  1. I made an account just to say that this recipe is trash. Wouldn't thicken at all, I wanted to throw my mixer because I was so frustrated. Trash, absolute garbage.
     
  2. The recipe didn't say how long to whip it and after 8 minutes I gave up. I didn't want to burn up my mixer. I did it exactly as written and was very disappointed that it didn't thicken.
     
  3. This recipe was in an old cookbook that I can not find. I have used it often as a topping for jellos that was going to be consumed after supper. I don't try to keep it overnight so it is a cheap alternate for stuff that is going to be used immediately. MUST LET BEATERS, BOWL, AND INGREGIENTS rest in fridge while having supper!
     
  4. This is OK in an emergency, but no amount of beating would make nice, stiff peaks.

I would like to welcome you to my recipes. I have been with Food.com since 10/05. My beloved husband, Tom, passed away 3 years ago. My world stopped. It's taken me all this time to find my way back to life without him. I have been so blessed to have found my second, once in a lifetime. I've met an amazing man who is so good to me. We moved from Las Vegas, Nevada to Bullhead City, Az. in February, and we love it here. I have worked at Bally's and Paris hotel.casinos, in Las Vegas. I have seen some very famous entertainers, including Liza Minnelli, Penn and Teller, Ray Liotta, Dr. J (Julius Erving), Frank Sinatra and his wife Barbara Marx. and many, many more. Cooking is my passion, and I am slowly, but surely beginning to venture into the world of baking. To me, cooking is so much easier because baking is so much more exact. I love to make Italian and Mexican food the best, followed by Chinese and last, but by far the least, good old American food! How can you beat chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and gravy?? I love to find several recipes and put my own spin on them and create a new recipe.
