CHEF JOHN'S CLOTTED CREAM

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 175 to 180 degrees F (80 degrees C).
• Pour cream into shallow glass or ceramic baking dish (an 8- or 9-inch square pan is ideal). Cream should be about 1 1/2 to 2 inches deep.
• Place dish in preheated oven. Bake 12 hours. Do not stir. Carefully remove from oven and let cool to room temperature. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or until completely chilled.
• Turn over a corner of the top layer of thickened cream; carefully pour liquid underneath into a container to use for baking.
• Pack the thickened (clotted) cream into a ceramic crock or canning jar. Cover and refrigerate up to 5 days.

FAUX CLOTTED CREAM

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, combine all but the whipping cream. Stir well.
• 2. Add unwhipped whipping cream.
• 3. Beat with a mixer until it's stiff. It should have the texture of bowl margarine or softened butter. Store in refrigerator. (But there won't be any left to store!) I've never used anything but whipping cream for this recipe and also always use brand name of Philadelphia Cream Cheese. I tried the store brand once and it didn't taste as rich. I don't think cool whip would work with this recipe, either.
