    Squirt cream wont work.

    It wil go flat in minutes.

    You need dream topping or whipped cream (fresh or long life)

    Oh no, two mini ones

    Just thinking for my birthday next month, if I'm not well enough to go out would like a nice meal at home

    Tinks you can have a nice low calorie meal at home. If you continue to get urges to eat this sort of crap, you'll never succeed in maintaining any weight loss.

    You can buy cool whip on the internet but it has gelatine in Tink.

    The closest alternative would be to buy heavy whipping cream and whip it with vanilla extract, icing sugar and agar agar.

    That pie wouldnt last 5 mins in our house

  • From the look of the recipe, I reckon you'd be disappointed with the taste, as all it is an Oreo base and a lot of sickly sweet cheesecake filling with a bit of peanut butter. I'd have to swirl some salted caramel through it or some peanut brittle topping, or both.

    Lol, I don't think it will last too long in Tinks house either, if her OH makes it for her :D
    I used to love dream topping when I was a kid, I thought it was much nicer than cream.
    Tink, you can buy it online at Asda.

    I couldn't be bothered to sign up to see the full recipe, but it does look a little sickly from the pic, and description. Sometimes it's what's needed. ;)

    Go for it, if it's your birthday. A day of scoffing won't harm you. :D

    Use whipping cream with icing sugar, instead of that horrible sounding cool whip.
    New forum. New sig. Yes I still need to lose 2 stone! :smiley:

    two 'mini ones', so you are keeping the quantities of ingredients the same or actually halving the ingredients to make two proper mini ones ;)

    Halving lol

    Squirty cream wouldnt work. Coolwhip is like dream topping (do they still make it?) or just sweetened, whipped double cream would do

    Thank you
