Can we replace it with (liquid unsweetened) whipping cream or something else?
Yes, per serving size!
I originally used the 9 x 13 and we loved this recipe for months, but when I only had my 8 x 8 to use, I was shocked at how much better it was. This recipe is the best breakfast casserole ever! Definitely use the 8 x 8. If I use the larger pan, it will be to double the recipe for company.
