Title: Vegan Dessert Recipes?
Post by: GoingNuts on March 10, 2016, 04:26:55 PM
Can anyone suggest a source of good vegan dessert recipes?
I have to supply a dessert for a dinner; must be vegan. All suggestions welcome!

My mom is vegan, so when she comes over I always make sure I have some vegan dessert. My standby is chocolate. I use Guittard, and I mix it with shredded coconut or Rice Krispies and put in mini muffin liners, or cover pretzels, or make some kind of bark with it. I have also done wacky cake for her.

Those all look great, and if I were doing it at my own home, I'd definitely do the grilled pineapple - it's one of my favorite desserts.
There's a Whole Foods right next to the place where I'm getting my car serviced later, so I'm going to check out what they have. I also think that one of my recipes would translate well to vegan if I use coconut milk instead of regular milk, but I'm not too keen to experiment on a crowd.
Thanks everyone!

My sister makes really good vegan cupcakes. Here's an email she sent me about the recipes she likes: Okay, so here are the two recipes that I make that I use the coconut flour for. The first is a basic chocolate cupcake. It contains coconut milk, and calls for almond flour/meal. Since I'm always making these for your family too, I learned that I can substitue coconut flour whenever a recipe calls for almond meal/flour and it works just fine. I've used this cupcake as a base for s'mores cupcakes (adding crumbled graham crackers to the batter and doing a marshmallow frosting). I've also used it for the chocolate orange cupcake, adding a bit of orange juice for part of the liquid called for.
The other one is a basic vanilla cupcake. Again, the coconut flour is a good sub for the almond meal/flower. You can add just about anything to this one - fruit, fillings, etc. but it's also just a really nice vanilla cake. This also has the same combo of soy milk and apple cider vinegar (that I use for red velvet cupcakes) that mimics buttermilk, so it has that nice flavor too.
