If you want another idea for using up leftover cream, this one's quick and simple. If you don't have quite enough cream, then crème fraiche or whole milk can be used to top up to what you need.

Milk is a dairy product that is high in protein and rich in minerals such as calcium. You can buy milk whole, semi-skimmed or skimmed. It is popular as a drink on its own and it’s used in many different recipes from savoury to sweet.
Store your milk in the fridge. Long life milk should be stored in the fridge once it is opened.
You can freeze milk for up to one month.
To freeze: You can freeze milk in its container if it is plastic, glass bottles will expand and crack. Ideal for smaller quantities - big bottles take time to defrost and use up lots of space in the freezer. Alternatively, freeze milk in ice cube trays for popping straight into your hot drink!
To defrost: When you take food/ drink out of the freezer, it’s important to defrost it safely. Don’t defrost at room temperature. Ideally, defrost fully in the fridge and use within 24 hours. Or, use a microwave on the defrost setting directly before use. Shake. You don’t need to defrost milk frozen in ice cube trays if using in your cuppa or adding to sauces.
Use by dates: Some milk has a Use By date which is about safety. Use or freeze milk with a Use By date before the Use By date. If milk has passed the Use By date, do not use or freeze it.
Best before dates: Some milk now has a Best Before date which is about quality. If milk has passed the Best Before date, it will be safe to use or freeze, but may not be at its best.
Sauces, puddings, scones and custard are great ways to use up leftover milk. Add leftover milk to a smoothie with strawberries, mango, bananas … or any fruit you like
Buy the right size bottle/ container for your needs. Think about whether you’ll get through it all before the Use By date - if it has a Use By date. How long do you have to use the milk once the container has been opened? If you’re not going to use it all in time, freeze some for later.
