Do they sell Lactaid or other lactase-treated milk where you live? It's a lifesaver. If you drink some of that milk, then you can have other dairy that would normally bother you. In your recipe, if you used a lactase-treated milk and real cream, which is naturally low in lactose, then you should be okay. But some people are more intolerant than others and your mileage may vary. You can also buy the lactaid pills.

I agree........and now there is the Cool Whip Free that is supposed to be sugar free, but whether it is sugar replacement free might be another thing. I've not tried it yet so I don't know. I do have a lot of recipes that call for Cool Whip and lots of times I will use whipped cream depending on the occasion. If I want something to taste especially rich, I will use a little whipped cream instead of a lot of Cool Whip.

Another recipe for mayonnaise to make tuna sandwiches with: All-Tofu Mayonnaise From: This Can't Be Tofu! by Deborah Madison (Bantam Doubleday Dell; April 2000; ISBN: 0767904192; Paperback) Cookbook Heaven @ Kitchenlink.com Here's an all-tofu mayonnaise, but your family may never suspect, especially if you add a tablespoon or more of prepared mayonnaise a good idea if you're nervous about it. (Although this option is not for you, Kitty.) This will keep, refrigerated, for up to five days.

Scrape into a bowl and refrigerate until ready to use. Variations: Mustard Mayonnaise: Increase the mustard to 4 to 5 teaspoons, or to taste. Garlic Mayonnaise: Coarsely chop 4 to 6 cloves unblemished garlic. Pound in a mortar with 1/2 teaspoon salt until the garlic breaks down to a smooth puree, then stir it into the mayonnaise.

Chlpotle Mayonnaise: Add 1 teaspoon pureed chipotle in adobo sauce into the mayonnaise. Taste and add more if you prefer it hotter. In place of lemon in the mayonnaise, use fresh lime juice.

I freeze excess cream and use it later to make ice cream or custards. When I make waffles, I like to substitute cream for 1/4 of the milk, and you can do the same for pancakes. If you use it in biscuits, they will be more like scones, which you already make. Waffles and pancakes that are made with partial cream are much fluffier than regular ones.
