I use this recipe all the time! Why buy half and half when you can make it as you need it. I melt 1 Tsp of butter in a measuring cup, let cool for a minute, fill with milk to equal one cup. Viola Cream! Glad to see this on Zaar ~V

Actually I needed evaporated milk for hot mamas (#98125) and the kitchen dictionary from recipezaar indicated that half and half could be used as a substitute for evaporated milk. (I didn't have the ingredients needed for making my own evaporated milk). Anyway, this worked out very well in the recipe and saved me a trip to the grocery store. Thanks for posting.

Just a helpful tip for those that need to know as i did. 7/8 cup equals 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons........ 7/8 tablespoon equals 2 and 1/2 teaspoons.

I made this to use as a substitute for the half and half I needed in ElaineAnn's Easter Babka With Icing. Very simple to make and it worked great! Thank you KC Cooker for posting this recipe.
