Sweetened Condensed Milk is a secret treasure, isn't it?

Yes, it's good stuff.

I haven't tried this recipe, but wanted to get it down in case someone wanted to use it. They could offer their opinion. I'll probably make it sometime this spring.

The whipping cream is the problem There is only one brand of cream I have found in my area without anything nasty like carrageenan in it, and the store that carries it never manages to keep it in stock.

Get unhomogenized milk and skim the cream or get it direct from a farmer. or Use half and half instead of whipping cream and water. Great Value (Walmart) doesn't have any additives

Isn't that "heavy whipping cream" which is just the fattiest stuff you can get from milk before butter? Shouldn't have anything besides milk fat in it. I wonder if half & half would work in this recipe by subtracting the water... Still probably not thick enough.
