Kraft Kitchens Tips

Cooking Know-How
The best way to thaw frozen COOL WHIP Whipped Topping is in its container in the refrigerator. An 8-oz. tub will thaw in 4 hours. We DO NOT recommend thawing COOL WHIP Whipped Topping in the microwave.
Size-Wise
Dessert can be a part of a balanced diet, but remember to keep tabs on portions.
