no it is not possible. If you do not have the buttermilk to begin the clabbering process you would have to wait for the milk to sour naturally and boughten milk reall ydoesn’t do that the same way fresh cows milk does. The other option is to use an enzyme called rennet but again, it aint gonna happen in an hour.
And whipping cream is not a component of cheese.
Even a simple farmer cheese made from yogurt takes more than an hour as you hang that to drain for several hours.
You need 2 things milk or cream and an acid.
Yes you can make it in 1/2 an hour no problem.
Bring your cream to just below a scald. Add a bit of lemon juice and some salt. Wait till it begins to clot and curd up. If it does not in a timely manner add a bit more acid. Strain it through a cloth of some sort, you may even use an old piece of sheet. Squeeze the excess, liquid out and hang in the refrigerator to continue to drain.
You can get your curd and start draining it inside an hour but generally I suspend it over a container in the cloth overnight to allow it to firm up.
With the lemon cheese I roll it in cracked pepper before service.
