Do what the recipe says. If it says add powdered milk - add the powder. if it says reconstitute before adding, mix it in water. Often the recipe asks for powder milk and some kind of liquid, which will mix with the milk

Dried milk powder can be added as part of the dry ingredients in a cake mixing bowl. It can be added dry to a beverage (tea, coffee, cocoa, etc) and stirred until dissolved. It can be creamed with a little water and then added, or watered to the consistancy of liquid milk - it rather depends on what is being cooked - which is not given in the question!

What can you use instead of powder milk in a recipe?

It depends on whether the recipe calls for powdered milk dissolved in water, or just the powder. If it is dissolved in water, then yes, you can use real milk instead. However, you're going to have to add a little sugar or vanilla to get the same taste, because powdered milk is a little sweeter than regular. If the recipe calls for the powder only, I wouldn't recommend substituting it. Think about it - with the powdered milk, something dry gets added to the recipe. With regular milk you'll probably water it down.

Not usually. If a recipe calls for heavy cream, it's usually because of the higher fat content, and powdered milk is low fat and/or fat free. But depending on what you are cooking, you may be able to use the powdered milk by adding butter in with it. But the results still won't be the same.
