Just remember if you don't use the Dream Whip, the amount of liquid will be WAY too much.

How much Cool Whip do you use in place of Dream Whip?

Reviewed on May. 27, 2010 by KSTOTTS

Dream Whip, it comes in a box and is usually on the same isle as the puddings and jellos

This really sounds good. I will definitly use Cool Whip. If you buy the Cool Whip Free there is no fat at all in it. Even the Cool Whip Lite only has 1 gram of sat. fat and no trans fat.

The only change would be to add rum extract

Too bad both Dream Whip and Cool Whip have trans fats.

What is the best way to toast coconut with out turning your oven on for to long?

Reviewed on May. 27, 2010 by patscooking

I can't eat anything with artificial sweeteners, except splenda, in it, so I would make home made vanilla pudding and use cool whip instead of dream whip. This sounds like something my husband would love to eat. He loves pineapple and coconut.
