Whipped Topping Recipes

A replacement for frozen whipped topping?We Answered:
You can either use merigue made with egg whites and sugar, or if you have a magic bullet, you can make whipped cream out of SKIM milk - yes, skim milk.I have done this several times with my magic bullet and it makes wonderful whipped cream that is fat free.
The secret is to have the milk extremely cold - not frozen, but extremely cold...it makes it whip up better.
If you want to go the meringue route, you can use splenda instead of sugar. Beat the egg whites until soft peaks form, add sugar to taste and beat until stiff.

Substitute meringue for whipped topping in pie recipe?We Answered:
It sounds like that would be perfectly fine. Meringue is usually used for citrus flavored pies so you would be atleast following that trend. But it sounds good to me! I would eat it! Yum Yum.Felicia Said:

What does it mean when a recipe says to "fold in half the whipped topping?We Answered:
The reason for folding is not to smush the air out of the whipped food, usually."Fold
Use a rubber spatula or a flat spoon and gentle motions when “folding.†Never use an electric mixer to fold. It is important to keep the mixture light and airy.
1. Pour or spoon the lighter mixture on top of the heavier one.
2. Cut down through the center of the food to the bottom of the bowl.
3. Slide the spatula across the bottom and up the side of the bowl, bringing some of the heavier food to the top.
4. As the spatula reaches the top, turn it back toward the center of the bowl.
5. Turn the bowl a quarter turn.
6. Cut through the center again, fold, turn the bowl and repeat until mixed."
