how to use up single cream?

thriftlady_2

To find out if it is OK taste it.

My mum used to make a chocolate cream pie which was simply chocolate melted, cream stirred in (think she used double but single would work) and the whole lot poured into a pre-cooked pastry case.

thanks everyone, the carton is still sealed so reckon it'll be fine...i have a choc cake recipe in the easter asda mag which uses double cream in the icing....might try it with single, hope it doesnt go horribly wrong!! :rotfl:

I have a pint of fresh cream that I need to use up, its single cream so can't freeze it. What can I do to use it up.

Hi rev,

I use it to make soups and sauces for freezing. This thread should give you more ideas:

I'll add your thread to it later to keep the suggestions together.

Someone bought a large pot of single cream to my party the other night, opened it and used a little bit on his pudding.

What can I do with what's left over? Preferably something I could freeze, as I'm on a perpetual diet ...

TIA

Good question, I'll be keeping my eye on this one I have a tub to use up too!

Quiche? Ice cream? It's pretty difficult to make cream into a low fat dish.

Maybe use it to make a sauce for a lasagna and cut into small portions and freeze.

Lots of ideas in this older thread I'll merge this later.
