Is Cool Whip the same as Whipped Cream?
When first introduced, Cool Whip was marketed as a non-dairy alternative to whipping cream. Today, Cool Whip is available in both original and chocolate flavor.
Whipped cream and Cool Whip are both airy, creamy substances that are often used as toppings or decorations for desserts. But while they may look similar, they are actually quite different.
Whipped cream is made from heavy cream that has been whipped with a mixer until it forms stiff peaks. It is rich and decadent, with a high fat content.
Cool Whip, on the other hand, is a processed food product that contains artificial ingredients. It is made from water, corn syrup, and vegetable oil, among other things. It is also lower in fat than whipped cream.

I can't have milk I wonder if almond milk would work.

Have you used almond milk with pudding mix? If you have, it would probably work with this recipe! Thank you for visiting.

can I use almond milk?
Lois says
I know other readers have tried to use almond milk, but I haven't. Do you usually use almond milk when making instant pudding?

I used homemade whipped cream rather than cool whip for this (not really Weight Watchers compliant anymore with the higher fat content), and it was amazing! I had canned blueberries on hand from a previous batch of canning I’d done, and topped it with the berries and juice, and WOW, so good! The pudding&whipped cream mix holds up really well for several days in the fridge, which is great for meal prep for me! Thanks so much for sharing!
Lois says
Thank you for the great comment and letting us know about the substitutions you used!
JAMIE STRICKLETT says
The picture for this recipe shows a 1 ounce size box and the recipe calls for a 3.4 ounce box. So the first time I used a 3.4 ounce size and 1% milk and the second time I used 3-1 ounce boxes because I couldn't find the 3.4 size, and skim milk. Both had good flavor but definitely different texture. Is it because I used 1% milk and versus skim milk? Thanks
Lois says
The recipe calls for only one box. They used to refer to these boxes as a 3.4 ounce size, but I do see in the photo they now say they're 1 ounce size...which can be very confusing. I updated the recipe card to show 1 box, 4 serving size box. I hope this helps you!
