Any uses for bitter cream? [View all]

I got a quart, mainly to give my old cat a coouple tbs daily. She stopped wanting it. I tasted it this morning and it's got a bitter taste, almost a month before the date. I imagine it is on its way to souring. There is about a cup left. Any kind of cookies or cakes, or even bread recipes that I could use it in? I'd even use it for skin care, just hate to see it go to waste! Thank you.

Sometimes it can be "freshened" with a little baking soda. I'd find a baking project I could use it marble falls Dec 2022 #1
