Can you use Cool Whip instead of whipping cream?

If you're in a pinch and not necessarily watching your calories, Cool Whip would certainly be a great option instead of whipping cream.

What can I do with leftover Cool Whip?

1. Make an icebox cake (or cupcakes).

2. Freeze it for later.

3. Make chocolate mousse.

Cool Whip vs. Whipped Cream:

I personally like the store-bought white stuff, but I also like homemade whipped cream too. If you are against Cool Whip, feel free to use a stabilized whipped cream instead. Either one works just fine.

How to make Cool Whip

To make stabilized whipped cream just use 3 cups heavy cream and 3/4 cup powdered sugar and beat that until thick and fluffy. That should give you enough to make a no-bake pie and to decorate the top.
