  1. If you don’t have heavy cream on hand, here are some good substitutes depending on your recipe and dietary preferences:

    1. Milk + Butter
    Mix 3/4 cup milk + 1/4 cup melted butter to make 1 cup of heavy cream substitute. Works well for cooking and baking.

    2. Half-and-Half + Butter
    Combine 7/8 cup half-and-half + 1/8 cup melted butter for a richer substitute.

    3. Milk + Cornstarch
    Mix 1 cup milk + 2 tablespoons cornstarch (whisk until smooth) to thicken like cream.

    4. Greek Yogurt + Milk
    Mix equal parts Greek yogurt and milk for a creamy texture with a slight tang—great for sauces or soups.

    5. Coconut Cream
    Use coconut cream for dairy-free or vegan recipes; it’s thick and rich with a subtle coconut flavor.

    6. Silken Tofu + Soy Milk
    Blend silken tofu with soy milk for a smooth, creamy vegan alternative.

    Note:
    These substitutes work differently depending on the recipe—some are better for cooking, others for whipping or desserts.
