low fat whipped topping

  • I think by the ingredients this will be okay for phase one maybe someone can go over it and check. I found it on cooks.com when i was looking for a replacement for half and half or coolwhip as we can get neither of these in the uk
    1 teasp of gelatin
    1/2 cup of fat free milk
    1/4 cup of fat free milk powder
    1 tblspoon of sweetner i used agave
    2 teasp of water
    1/2 teasp of vanilla extract
    soften gelatin in water for 5 mins
    stir milk powder into fat free milk and heat to simmering
    stir in gelatin until dissolved
    stir in sweetner and vanilla
    chill until starting to thicken
    beat with a rotary or electric mixed until very thick and light store in fridge for several days or freeze
    i don't have an electric whisk so used a hand whisk so probably did not whisk it enough and it actually set like custard but was still good 2 spoonfuls over strawberries
  • Hi, Slim. I live in the uk as well and have a hard time finding some things as well. This recipe sounds ok, the only thing I'm not sure about is the gelatine. I'll do some research and let you know!
  • gelatine is ok it is in every sugar free jelly you buy
