Dairy free whipping cream

For those with dairy alergy or just anyone on low sugar or fat diets.

A dairy free alternative to whipping cream. It has the same texture and mouth feel as real whipped cream!

1 cup almond milk
3 Tbsp rice flour
½ cup white shortening (eg. Crisco)
½ cup butter or margarine
1 cup icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla

Directions: Cook almond milk & rice flour in a large bowl in a saucepan over med-high heat, stirring often, until very thick (once mixture comes to a boil it should be thick enough) - about 3-5 minutes, then let cool.

Using an electric mixer, cream shortening and margarine, then add vanilla and sugar. Beat until smooth. Then add cooled rice flour mixture and beat until very fluffy.

For a really nice presentation, put the whipped cream in a piping bag and squeeze onto your desserts.
