    It will only keep a day or two. If it isn't sweetened, you can use it like any cream, to thicken a sauce, say.
    If it is sweetened, you can add some lemon or orange juice, or a bit of alcohol and call it syllabub, before "eating it all up" ("troughing" being a verb that cannot be used in the same sentence as syllabub)
    Or you can look up an ice cream recipe, and adjust the sugar to take account of what's in already.

    Blitz up some chocolate digestives or oreos, mix them with some melted butter, press into the bottom of a cake tin.

    While that's setting, whip up a packet of plain cream cheese with half a jar of nutella, then fold in your whipped cream and some orange zest and juice.

    Spoon onto your biscuit base and let it sit in the fridge for a couple of hours.

    :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    ooo you make me giggle! After the amount of garlic I put in the dinner tonight I don't think romance will be in the air. Vampires in New Zeland are falling down dead when I breathe out.

    The cheesecakey idea sounds lovely! Unfortunately I have none of those ingredients ... well I have cream cheese with chives but I don't fancy chivey nutella. :)

    I haven't put any sugar in it yet so I could maybe make a syllabub and eat it with my pinky raised. :p

    I'm going to take the innocent route here (unlike me usually) and suggest putting it on some hot chocolate or maybe at Eton Mess style dessert.
