And some cornflour! it really works or you can cook it for longer and keep stirring it then it should suddenly thicken up like cream does when its stirred fro a few minutes!
Adding a few tablespoons of cornstarch (it often takes a lot for custard!) will help, but make sure you are using whole milk. 1% and 2% won't be consistent, and often don't thicken. You can also try adding another egg to your custard to help it thicken up. When adding eggs, be sure you add some of the hot liquid to a bowl with beaten eggs before putting them straight in your custard. You do not want to make a pot of soupy scrambled eggs!
If you are making a double broiler: I have found that setting a glass bowl on top of the pot does not always work! Reluctantly I have used a metal bowl on top which has been pretty flawless. Towards the end of cooking time be sure to whisk it into submission! It helps the starch activate and thicken as well as getting out any lumps! Hope this helps!

∙ 14y agoUse Heavy Whipping Cream and start with chilled tools (bowl and beater's should be left in the fridge or freezer for at least 1/2 hour before using).
Whip cream with confectioner's sugar and vanilla as usual ("usual" should mean adding sugar and flavoring after cream has been beaten to form soft peaks). After adding flavorings and beating enough to incorporate them into the cream, add a small amount of unflavored Gelatin that has been dissolved in a small amount of boiling water. Continue to beat or whip cream until it reaches satisfactory thickness. It can then be piped into decorative shapes or used as icing or pie topping or just placed in the fridge, where it will continue to stiffen for a couple hours.
As far as adding gelatin, you can place a tsp or more, depending on how much stiffness you need and how much cream you are using (I recommend about 1 tsp of gelatin per cup of cream) in a small bowl, pour just enough boiling water over it to allow it to dissolve, and stir until it's dissolved. This should be cooled but not congealed when you pour it into the cream.
Whipped cream made this way will stay good in the fridge for about 5 days.

Can you make cream cheese frosting without cream cheese?
Well, no, since cream cheese frosting has a lot of cream cheese in it. Could you simulate it? Hmm. you'd need something to give it the cheesy tang. Some sour cream might do it, but too much and it would be sloppy and too soft. You need the firmness. There may be a way to simulate it using well strained yogourt. If you put plan yogurt in a coffee filter in the fridge for many hours it will drain and thicken like cheese. Greek or balkan yogurt is thicker to start and might work.
