List of Ingredients

Making this homemade half and half from scratch at home is so simple. You only need two ingredients! Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.

Whole Milk: I’ve tried other milk and it works ok but I think that whole milk works the best because of the high fat content! This is because skim milk (or any low-fat milk) has lower fat content and makes the half and half have a much thinner consistency. Heavy Whipping Cream: This give the half and half that creaminess in taste and texture.
