Like to try this recipe but can you tell me how much whipped cream is in 1 whole can. I cannot buy cans of whipped cream where I am, I have to whip the whipping cream myself. Thank you, the children will love this recipe.

What is "1 whole can of whipped cream"? Is it a tub of cool whip 8 or 12 ozs.? A can of "Redi whip"? I've been cooking for over 50 years and have never heard of this.
