Is it the philly brand?
If not then Ice cream, cheesecakes, freeze some for latter.

I'm guessing you can't make butter with it?
Have you tried?

Going to make vanilla ice cream
Cookies n cream ice cream
Pasta
Chookies swedish ice cream cake

Thats just over 1 litre!!!!

I could try butter, but I assumed it had to be heated as its cooking cream.

The problem, no freezer space & no interest in cooking, but I cant let it go to ruin.
Will have to re-pack all freezers, that normally works well.

Do you have any recipes for cocktails with cream Hally?  eg Brandy Alexander

Make some gravy from the Swedish meatballs recipe on the forum and freeze it - you will probably have to add more cornflour to thicken it though or perhaps even do that when you thaw it out and reheat it.  It's very handy to have in the freezer to serve with any type of meat.

Make rice pudding or custard with half milk and half cream.

Give some away  ;D

If it was me I'd be making up a few batches of butter chicken from the Indian book and freezing it (if you have room).  We have this ALL the time ! Most requested family and extended family recipe ! Our kids eat it too and if it's a little too spicy (they do like some spice though), I just pick out bits of chicken for the younger two and add a bit of cream. I usually use a 600ml cream for this dish.

Gosh where did you get all that cream Hally? Was it on super special?

We have quite a few curries in the freezer :)

I wish my vanilla paste had arrived.

Its a catering pack, comes in a 5 litre plastic bottle like milk.
