Excessive amount of double cream: what to do with it?

[mindutopia]

I bought a lot of double cream for Christmas, some of it for Christmas pudding, some for other things. We ended up not eating the Christmas pudding (no one had room, I tried for 3 days! 😂). What could I do with 600ml of double cream? Goes out of date on Sunday. I think I could freeze it (?) but we’re moving house in February, so will need to defrost freezer by then. Oh and we’re doing vegetarian meals for January. Some sort of pudding? I’m not sure anyone can stomach the Christmas pudding at this point!

Ice cream .

If you have some bananas knocking about that need using , even better .

600g of fruit mashed up with 280g of caster sugar , then put in a food mixer add the 600 ml of cream and whisk together till it thickens . Then put in an icecream tub and freeze . You might need to tweak the amount of sugar dependent on the fruit , but I guarantee you icecream that tastes like it used to .

Double cream keeps a LOT longer than its sell by date. Like weeks longer. In the fridge obvs.

instant ice cream.

in a blender mix frozen berries, icing sugar and the cream.
eat as much as you can and stick the rest in the freezer for later.
