It is so very, very different from Cool Whip. I have a place in my heart for both Cool Whip and homemade whipped cream. lol The homemade falls pretty quickly. You want to make it and serve it pretty much immediately. It is so good though. Well worth making every now and then.
Another variation is homemade "Chocolate Whip Cream" - same as above only with the powdered sugar, I also add powdered baking chocolate. Of coarse, I don't use it on pumpkin pie!!.... but it is delicious on a lot of other things.
