Thanks Rachael,

I thought it might be whipped cream in a can, but wasnt sure.

I will give it a try, or perhaps I could just whip some cream *lol*

Yes, it's whipped cream + sugar and I think some yucky trans fats in a can. So you'd be much better off using ordinary old home whipped cream.
I suspect the stuff we can buy in a can is also full of sugar and other junk. Doesn't taste nearly as good as plain whipped cream. :)

Actually "Cool Whip" is edible oil products plus sugar plus preservatives. Not a speck or drop of cream as far as I can remember.
Blechhhhhhhh!
