Using up vanilla-flavored non-dairy creamer?

[greygarious]

I like Trader Joe's hazelnut flavor one for my coffee but not, as it turns out, the vanilla flavored one.
There's a quart of it. I will try making "creamsicle" jello with a cup of it. Any ideas for the rest? Does it whip? Will it make a successful puddiing or bread pudding?

I know that kosher cooks and bakers use NDC but have no experience with it. Is there any cream use for making sweet dishes for which NDC absolutely won't work? TIA

Add it to a traditional french toast batter (eggs, cinnamon, vanilla extract, milk) by sub'ing some of the non dairy for milk.

great minds, J - i was thinking pancake or waffle batter.

ETA: or how about oatmeal?

I was going to suggest oatmeal. I like flavored coffee creamers in oatmeal, also can be good in hot chocolate. I don't drink coffee, but like to keep some around in the winter.

[HillJ]

Absolutely. I've been known to freeze non dairy creamer in ice cube trays to have on hand when friends ask for it as well. Handy.

[goodhealthgourmet]

now THAT is a smart idea.

Sub it for water or milk in cooking either oatmeal or cream of wheat , not just a pour-over on top after it's cooked (either completely subbing, or partial sub). Adds a great flavor, especially with some real vanilla extract mixed in.

[goodhealthgourmet]

that's what i meant when i said oatmeal - i probably should have been more specific about method :)

[greygarious]

That's a good idea. I do make hot chocolate when it's really cold, and sometimes add cocoa mix to a cup of coffee. The vanilla would not be as unwelcome in those applications. Since no one has posted about whippability, I suppose I should give that a try.

[HillJ]

The whippability is not nearly the creamy I'd enjoy in a dessert or java but it would work nicely as a creamy base for a slice of cake and fresh berries on top. Think melted ice cream.

It's great for iced coffee, if you don't mind a 500 calorie glass of coffee!

make faux egg-noggy cocktails/mocktails?

use it to make white russian-type drinks? (i would think it would be a bit like using a vanilla flavored vodka in these same type of drinks, which is tasty, for those who like a very sweet after dinner drink?

pour over fruit cobbler/baked apples... make dairy free rice pudding?

i don't think it's likely to whip, but i'm unfamiliar w the product, the above is just what sprung to mind.

Hi, You can poke holes in a cake or brownie and pour the creamer in for a tres leche effect. The different flavors make for a tasty cake.
