Make whipped cream, of course. They make or buy a dessert for it to go with. Or make hot fudge sundaes, or some sort of ice cream sundae. Or make some chocolate pudding, put in a nice stemware glass,and layer the pudding with whipped cream. If you have Oreo cookies, crumble those and layer them with the whipped cream and pudding. But regardless of what dessert you choose, I’d make some nice, homemade whipped creamed to go with a dessert of your choice.

Try any of my following favorites:
Saint Louis Pepper Steak
Difficulty: Easy
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Yield: 4 servings
4 (6-ounce) beef fillets (have the butcher cut them in 1/2 to make 8 (3-ounce) fillets)
Salt
1 cup coarsely cracked black peppercorns
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons finely diced garlic
2 teaspoons finely diced shallots
1/3 cup brandy or cognac
2 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons pure clover honey
1/4 cup stone ground mustard
Lightly salt both sides of the fillets. Then press each side firmly into the cracked pepper to coat.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil on high heat. Add the fillets to the pan and cook to the desired temperature. Remove from the skillet and set aside. Note: after removing from heat the filets will continue to cook, so better under than over. 1 to 2 minutes per side for rare (cold red center); 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare (warm red center); 5 to 6 minutes per side for medium (hot pink center); 7 to 8 minutes per side for medium well (hot very little pink center); 8 to 9 minutes per side for well (hot center NO pink at all).
In the same pan over medium-high heat, add the butter, garlic, and shallots and cook until golden brown. Remove from the heat and carefully pour in the brandy or cognac. Alcohol is very flammable, so have a lid handy. Put the pan back on the stove on medium to medium-high heat and add the heavy cream. Cook until reduced by half, about 6 to 8 minutes. Whisk in the honey and mustard. Adjust seasoning with salt, if desired.
Plate the fillets, finish with the sauce, and enjoy. Serve with your favorite starch and vegetable. At the Top of the Riverfront we serve with roasted garlic mashed potatoes and sauteed fresh vegetables in season.

To make the vanilla potatoes:
In a medium saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of butter until melted. Then add shallots and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until soft. Pour in the white wine and deglaze the pan. Next, add the thyme and vanilla. Bring to a boil and continue boiling for 4 to 5 minutes or until the liquid is reduced by half of its volume. Add the cream and bring back up to a boil. Once at a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 4 to 6 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. Remove from the heat, season with salt and cool. Blend the cream mixture in a blender and strain through a fine mesh strainer, and then set aside. In a saute pan, over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the cooked potatoes and cipollini onions and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until warm.

Season the mixture with salt and then pour into a clean saucepan over medium heat and add the butter, gently stirring to combine. Add the crabmeat and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the crabmeat is heated through. Reduce heat to low and simmer sauce until ready to serve.
To make the beef tenderloin:
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F.
Place the beef tenderloin steaks on a clean work surface. Pat dry and then season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. In a large, oven-proof saute pan or skillet, add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and heat over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add the tenderloins and sear on 1 side, about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip steaks to cook on the second side and then immediately place the skillet in the oven to finish cooking, about 4 minutes more.
To serve, spoon a portion of the Vanilla Potatoes on the center of a plate. Place a tenderloin steak on top of the potatoes and then spoon a portion of the Piquillo Crab Sauce on top of the steak.

White Chocolate Hazelnut Tartlets
8 (17 by 13-inch) frozen phyllo pastry sheets, thawed
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
6 ounces good-quality white chocolate, chopped
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup hazelnuts, toasted, husked, and finely chopped
1/4 cup chocolate hazelnut spread (recommended: Nutella), optional
1 (3-ounce) bar bittersweet chocolate, grated, for garnish
Edible flowers, for garnish
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
Lay 1 phyllo sheet on a work surface. Brush the phyllo with melted butter. Top with another phyllo sheet. Repeat with more butter and 2 more phyllo sheets. Cut the stacked phyllo sheets into 6 (5-inch) squares. Line each muffin cup with 1 stacked phyllo square, allowing the edges to ruffle and extend above the cup rims. Repeat with the remaining 4 phyllo sheets and melted butter. Bake until the phyllo cups are golden brown, about 9 minutes. Transfer the muffin pan to a cooling rack and cool completely.
Meanwhile, stir the white chocolate and 1/4 cup cream in a heavy small saucepan over low heat until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Pour into a large bowl and cool to barely lukewarm. Stir in the hazelnuts. Using an electric mixer, beat the remaining 1 1/4 cups cream in another large bowl to medium-firm peaks. Fold the cream into the white chocolate mixture in 2 batches. Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 1 hour.
Spoon 2 teaspoons of the chocolate hazelnut spread into each phyllo cup, if using. Spoon the white chocolate mousse into the cooled phyllo cups, mounding slightly. Arrange the mousse-filled phyllo cups on plates. Sprinkle the bittersweet chocolate over the mousse, or garnish with edible flowers, and serve.
Do-Ahead Tip: The unfilled phyllo cups can be made 2 days ahead. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature. The white chocolate mousse can be made up to 8 hours ahead. Keep it refrigerated. The filled phyllo cups can be assembled up to 1 hour ahead. Cover and refrigerate them.

MONASTERY CREAMED SPINACH
6 cups pre-cooked spinach (squeeze to remove extra liquid)
4-6 cloves of garlic, chopped
1 onion, chopped
2 cans of tomato sauce
¼ to ½ cup heavy cream (depending on how creamy you want it)
In a large saucepan, sauté the garlic and onion together in Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Add some salt to bring out the flavor in the garlic and onion. Next, add in the two cans of tomato sauce. Let the sauce simmer on low to medium heat for about 15 minutes. Stir frequently.
Then, chop up the cooked spinach and add it to the tomato sauce in the saucepan. Keep the heat on low or medium. Let the spinach cook for about 15 minutes in the tomato sauce. Then add the heavy cream. Stir well.
Let it all cook together until some of the liquid goes away and the mixture thickens. Add salt and pepper as you like.
Put it into a serving dish, and serve hot. Or, you can make this into a casserole by pouring the creamed spinach into a casserole dish, then sprinkle cheese on top, and top with crushed bread crumbs.
Bake in the oven until cheese is melted.
ROTISSERIE CHICKEN FETTUCCINI W/ WHITE
WINE CREAM
1 whole rotisserie chicken
2 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 sweet onion sliced thinly in 1 x 1/4 inch sections
1 bunch of asparagus, cut into 1 1/2 inch pieces (trim ends)
8 oz sliced fresh mushrooms
1/2 teaspoon chopped garlic (I use refrigerated pre-chopped)
1 1/2 cups white wine, divided
1 teaspoon cider vinegar
ground pepper and salt to taste
1 cup heavy cream at room temperature
1 tablespoon flour mixed with 1/4 cup cold water to reduce lumps
1 tablespoon lemon juice
shredded parmesan cheese to taste

1. Remove meat from the chicken by tearing off bite size chunks. Place chicken in a bowl and set aside. Save skin and bones for another use.
2. Cook your noodles following packaging directions.
3. Melt butter and oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir the onions until they become translucent and tender; stir in asparagus and garlic. Saute for a minute or two. Stir in mushrooms. Cook over until liquid is reduced. Add salt and pepper.
4. Deglaze the pan with in 1 cup white wine and the vinegar, increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Boil liquid until it is reduced. Once it is evaporated, add the remaining 1/2 cup wine. Boil for 1-3 minutes to evaporate the alcohol (there will still be most of the liquid in the pan…do not reduce this liquid all the way). Reduce heat to medium-low.
5. When sauce is no longer boiling, slowly stir in cream. Simmer for two minutes. Add a little of the water/flour mixture for desired thickness (less for thinner sauce, more for thicker sauce).
6. Add the lemon juice and simmer for 1 to 3 minutes until desired consistency (note, you may thin the sauce with a little milk or water if it becomes to thick).
7. Remove the sauce from heat and stir in the chicken.
8. Combine the sauce/chicken with the noodles. Stir well to coat.
Serve the pasta garnished generously with the parmesan cheese and a little pepper. You can also sprinkle a little tarragon on top for presentation.

ANGEL FOOD CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE CREAM
from the book Grill! by Pippa Cuthbert & Lindsay Cameron Wilson.
Decadent!
I’ll never forget the day I first tasted grilled angel food cake with a dollop of chocolate cream. Nothing has really been the same since. Of course you can make your own cake if you prefer, but store-bought is the simple and guaranteed-to-be fluffy option.
For the chocolate cream:
8 Tbsp confectioners sugar
4 Tbsp cocoa powder
2 Tbsp milk
1 cup (250ml) heavy cream
1 pinch cream of tartar
-
8 fat slices store-bought angel food cake
1-2 Tbsp confectioners sugar, for dusting
To make the chocolate cream, whisk together the confectioners sugar, cocoa powder and milk in a small bowl. Set aside. In a separate bowl, beat the cream with the cream of tartar until soft. Whisk in the chocolate mixture until well blended. Cover and refrigerate.
Preheat the grill or grill pan to hot. Dust the angel food cake slices with confectioners sugar. Grill the slices for 1 minute on each side until golden and grill marks appear on the surface. Transfer to serving plates and top with chocolate cream. Serves 8.

1/2 t. salt
12 oz. heavy whipping cream

Transfer corn mixture to casserole. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and brown under broiler.
Serves 6

If you ever have leftover whipping cream and don’t know what to do with it, pour it into an empty ice cube tray and freeze it. Once it’s frozen, pop the cubes out of the tray and into a zip lock bag. Then, when you want to make a nice homemade soup and turn it into a cream soup, just drop in a couple of the frozen cubes, they’ll melt right in the soup, give it a stir, and you’ll have the most wonderful mouth-feel in your soup.
You can zap it in the microwave also to use it for anything else. I wouldn’t do that if you are planning on making whipped cream out of it but for anything else that calls for whipping cream – this trick really works and you have it on hand.
You can also do that with leftover evaporated milk.
