Hi, all. Thanks to Kathy, Gary and others who answered my questions about making whipped cream.
It worked just fine with the large plastic bowl I used. Overall, I'd say the cheesecake was a success. I'm glad I stuck with the heavy cream the recipe called for. It would have been too rich with the Dulce de leche and store-bought whipped topping. I'd definately make this again.
