is dairy whip cream the same as ordinary fresh cream? or can i replace it with condensed milk? i only get fresh cream and condensed milk here. thks

lastly, are you talking about the strawberry heart cookies which you posted that didn't come out well or is it some other recipe? coz i have bookmarked all your recipes to try out. they all look very good.
