2. <br />
3. <b>Housewarming Dinners</b><br />
4. J and I had dinner at a former colleague and her fiance's <i>new</i> home along with another colleague and her hubby (not using names makes sentences sound so cryptic...and long!). We enjoyed touring their new home (I was trolling for decorating ideas, of course) and quinoa + bbq'd chicken + potatoes + sweet potatoes on their nice, big dining room table. I was fortunate enough to have the seat that had a big, beautiful, brown border collie as my foot rest. :)<br />
5. <br />
6. I, unfortunately, wasn't thinking clearly and didn't get any photos of dinner until I saw the well-plated dessert.<br />
7. <br />
8. Natalie made us this for dessert:<br />
9. <br />
10. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
11. <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-N3HkwqC-E6A/TzRoNRhls_I/AAAAAAAAARo/Ymu23263MQU/s1600/0000000we0q.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="276" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-N3HkwqC-E6A/TzRoNRhls_I/AAAAAAAAARo/Ymu23263MQU/s640/0000000we0q.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
12. I uploaded a picture of this on Twitter and it got a lot of comments - why wouldn't it, right? Chocolate mousse that's dairy, soy AND sugar-free? Obviously it would be popular.<br />
13. <br />
14. Sadly I don't have the <i>exact</i> recipe right now, but I do know it involves: coconut milk (not shaken, opened and left in fridge overnight, "pulp scooped out) + cocoa + honey + vanilla. The key to my heart...<br />
15. <br />
16. Note: All shot glasses were mismatched and purchased at Value Village. Cute eh? And Alex placed them on a mirrored tray...genius!<br />
17. <br />
18. <b>Sunday Tea</b><br />
19. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
20. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEF2pQqo-UoN3TTVWN-K8hi-kxIppEyy_PnjOg1v91j0ocvIodTtqGyq6Re-QCbuQFIDZEKgCnM8l6rOuFjqPc1UPPqO3AM6_qFwAoxzP0MFheSs1a1vj4VAU8ZRWbRLm5qoVl7MPd2V0/s1600/00001324a.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="274" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEF2pQqo-UoN3TTVWN-K8hi-kxIppEyy_PnjOg1v91j0ocvIodTtqGyq6Re-QCbuQFIDZEKgCnM8l6rOuFjqPc1UPPqO3AM6_qFwAoxzP0MFheSs1a1vj4VAU8ZRWbRLm5qoVl7MPd2V0/s640/00001324a.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
21. <br />
22. On Sunday, while everyone was busy prepping for Super Bowl festivities, I was busy attending a proper Sunday tea. Brilliant, right?  Aimee over at <a href="http://foodjetaimee.blogspot.com/">Food, Je T'Aimee</a> - a friend of J's (then I stole her for myself), long before food blogging happened - invited myself and some other local foodies/bloggers/friends over for tea. It was an absolutely splendid time as I have really not branched out or met any local bloggers! I've been canoodling with gals mostly in New York (ladies..you know who you are!). It was an absolutely great opportunity to meet some local ladies that share similar passions - ALTHOUGH they all completely tormented me with their massive array of goodies. It's hard to have tea without the sweetness, isn't it? :)<br />
23. <br />

26. <br />
27. Cucumber sandwiches + ginger lemon tea + almond butter cookies? Huzzah! A very happy camper. Thanks to Kathy over at <a href="http://eathalifax.blogspot.com/">Eat Halifax</a> for bringing me some yummy vegan and sugar-free cookies. Someday I'll learn to bake and these will be part of my repertoire!<br />
28. <br />
29. A big thank you to Ms. Aimee for hosting and for letting me peek into her home filled with beautiful dishes, a massive kitchen and all kinds of little quirks that I greatly enjoy(ed).<br />
30. <br />
31. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

33. Also thanks to her kitty cat, Ethel (probably the 2nd cutest girl-cat name, after Gili :P), for spending the afternoon with me. My own kitty cat sure loved all of that pant-fur I brought home with me. No jealousy issues there at all...<br />
34. <br />
35. Although I didn't get to chat with every single person at tea...I plan on checking out their blogs. You should, too. Halifax peeps are pretty cool, I tell ya...<br />

49. Hey - by the way! I have stopped bombarding my Facebook friends with blog posts and have created a page. Care to follow? <a href="https://www.facebook.com/allieschangingkitchen">Allie's Changing Kitchen on Facebook</a><br />
50. <br />
51. <b>RECIPE ADDITION! </b><br />
52. <b><br /></b><br />
53. Natalie just emailed me the recipe she used and turns out she found it from <a href="http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2012/01/16/chocolate-frosting-shots/">Chocolate Covered Katie's Blog</a>. :) Katie calls it mousse frosting, which gives me the grand idea of actually using it for frosting (you know, when I finally bake something..). Go on over to Katie's blog and check out the original recipe.<br />
54. <br />
55. Nat says she made it again, since, and added Lindtt chocolate into the cream to make it extra chocolately (note: I'm still struggling to find a dark baking chocolate that is without dairy/soy/sugar?). If (read: when) I make these, I think I'm going to add mape instead of - or in addition to - the honey. It was delicious as is, but I DO have an obsession with maple!  Another variation would be to add fruit to the top (like Nat with her raspberries) OR blend it right in... the options are endless. <3<br />

65. J and I spent Christmas morning together and alone - the only other time we've ever done this was our first Christmas together...in the Philippines! That Christmas was obviously a little bit different than this one. I think we slept in. We ate lobster and scallops for our dinner and bought a bottle of wine (from a "corner store") to drink together on the beach. And then we called our parents as they were just waking up....</div>
66. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
67. <br /></div>
68. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
69. Yes. Quite different, but still special. The above photo shows our Christmas breakfast and dining experience in front of our beautifully big tree in our living room. J and I had a hard time coming up with what to eat for our morning, because we actually make a point of enjoying a big breakfast/brunch together one day a week - so how to find something that screams 'Christmas Morning'?</div>
70. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
71. <br /></div>
72. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
73. I'll be linking you back to <a href="http://www.chocolatecoveredkatie.com/">Chocolate Covered Katie</a>'s blog here, but when I saw her single-serving recipe for Blueberry Pie Pancakes, I drooled. Really, I think I literally drooled. So, I bought the ingredients, mixed it all together and got J to cook them (I'm really too impatient to cook a pancake properly). As you can see: he had fun with it and made one giant one.</div>
74. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
75. <br /></div>
76. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
77. To top it off, we had some 100% Blueberry Maple Syrup in our fridge from J's mom. Soooooo amaaazingly good (and filling!).</div>
78. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
79. <br /></div>
80. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
81. To drink: Our giant mug of coffee. We couldn't go without that. On top of that, I made some Egg Nog Shakes, as shown on Charissa's blog, <a href="http://www.colourfulpalate.com/">Colourful Palate</a>. I made a few slight changes, but it was tasty and refreshing...perfect with the sweetness of the pancakes.</div>

93. What I Did:</div>
94. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
95. <br /></div>
96. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
97. 1 cup of blueberries</div>
98. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
99. 2/3 cup of wholewheat flour</div>
100. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
101. 4 tbsp of oats</div>
102. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
103. 1 tsp of cinnamon</div>
104. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
105. 1 1/4 tsp of baking powder</div>
106. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
107. 1/4 tsp of salt</div>
108. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
109. 1 tsp vanilla</div>
110. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
111. 2/3 cup Rice Dream Vanilla Rice Milk</div>
112. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
113. 2 tbsp coconut oil</div>
114. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
115. <br /></div>
116. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
117. Combine all of the dry ingredients together then add in the wet! Then treat it like any old regular pancake (J's job). :)</div>
118. <br />

127. What I did (as you can basically see on my recipe card above!):<br />
128. <br />
129. In a blender.. (Or in my case, I put this much in each Magic Bullet cup)<br />
130. 1/2 cup of coconut milk<br />
131. 1/2 cup of Rice Dream Vanilla<br />
132. 2 handfuls of ice (I had a bag, not a tray)<br />
133. 1 tbsp of coconut oil<br />
134. 1 tsp nutmeg<br />
135. 1/2 tsp cinnamon<br />
136. 1/2 tsp xantham gum (to thicken)<br />
137. 2 tsp vanilla (I ended up putting in more than this)<br />
138. <br />
139. Blend and enjoy!<br />
140. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
141. <br /></div>
142. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br />
143. <br />
144. We ate a traditional delicious turkey dinner for our main meal of the day. My grandmother hosted the meal and my aunt hosted the dessert - so we could visit with both Christmas trees and houses!<br />
145. <br />
146. I was responsible for creating a dessert "I could eat". I was super excited to tackle something, but slightly discouraged after my cupcake fail. I kept on searching for something else I might be able to tackle on <a href="http://www.spoonfulofsugarfree.com/">Spoonful of Sugar Free</a> and found the perfect thing - a crisp (or a Pick-a-Fruit Crisp as Alex calls it).<br />
147. <br />
148. This was the ideal dessert to take. I was able to prep most of it the day before, but could throw it in the oven while we were all sitting down to eat our dinner. I chose to go with berries, because I love how tart they are.<br />

153. <b>Berry Crisp</b><br />
154. <i><a href="http://spoonfulofsugarfree.com/2010/10/09/pick-a-fruit-crisp/">Original Recipe</a></i><br />
155. What I did:<br />
156. <br />
157. The day before (or whenever):<br />
158. Chop up 1/3 cups of walnuts.<br />
159. In a bag, mix together the above walnuts with:<br />
160. 1/2 cup of oats<br />
161. 1/4 tsp of cinnamon<br />
162. 1/3 tsp of ginger<br />
163. <br />
164. I poured my bag of frozen berries into the pan I would be using for baking and placed it in the fridge to defrost overnight. You could use fresh fruit, too.<br />
165. <br />
166. When everything is ready:<br />
167. Preheat oven to 375.<br />
168. Add 2 tbsp of margarine to the topping mixture and place on top of the berries.<br />
169. <br />
170. Bake for approximately 35 minutes.<br />
171. <br />
172. <i>Notes: </i><br />
173. <i>-You could use any kind of fruit at all, as well as any kind of nut. I personally love walnuts and berries.</i><br />
174. <i>-I would hands down double up the topping the next time I make this - and this has become my favorite healthy, but easy, dessert so I will be making it again soon!</i><br />
175. <br />

181. I think that about sums it up for the extreme Christmas-y posts! We ate A LOT (but who doesn't during the holidays, right?). Not all things we ate were good (I snuck in a lot of goat cheese *shame*), but there is never a better time to indulge.. .. Right? :) This post comes at a perfect time as J and I just dragged our Christmas tree to the curb *tear. We kept it up longer than we should have, but it's so sad to take down. I wish I could have those pretty ornaments up all year around... Oh well. Another new year, which means re-organization! The thing I love to do but complain about nonstop!: ) </div>

192. Ever since I discovered <a href="http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/">Chocolate Covered Katie</a>, I have been ogling these fudge babies. After a disastrous battle with my food processor and the liquid ingredients to the chocolate cupcakes I have been aching to try, I had success with these no-bake babies and redeemed some confidence.</div>
193. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
194. <br /></div>
195. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
196. The original cupcake recipe, from <a href="http://spoonfulofsugarfree.com/">Spoonful of Sugar Free</a> looks so delightful, but I was too discouraged to figure out how to fix the liquidy mess I was in. Both Alex and Katie in the above blogs have been completely inspiring for me and what little sweet tooth that still lingers, but I'll have to stick with the no-bake options until I get some better kitchen tools (a mixer instead of a processor?!ha), more baking intuition and general baking confidence.</div>

198. <br /></div>
199. <div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
200. The one fun thing I got from my cupcake fail? The frosting! Oh how happy I am to have found this. You will likely hear me quoting both Alex and Katie basically every time I go to make a dessert now. They make it look so easy...and they have options! Banana frosting, peanut frosting, chocolate frosting...and the list goes on. I used the Peanut Butter Frosting from Alex's cupcake recipe for the toppings of Katie's Fudge Babies! I'd say a good eight people tried these (and it was a small batch!) and then I had to hide them....</div>

254. Neither of us have much of a sweet tooth, but you still can't compete with a good chocolate....anything.<br />
255. <br />
256. Birthday dinner and celebrations will be had on the weekend, but to celebrate the day J turns 31 (*note the candles), I discovered a new blog with loads and loads of "raw" sweets I'll be able to take advantage of! ChocolateCoveredKatie.com. Cute name. Healthy Alternatives to guilty pleasures. Easy Recipes. Done. It's in the blog bank.<br />
257. <br />
258. My version was more of a throw together 'he has to have <i>something</i> to acknowledge the actual day' treat. You'll note that Katies' are quite a bit more visually appealing. I'll get there.  For now, my Dollar Store ramekins work just fine.<br />
259. <br />
260. Her original blog post said this could be used as icing, fudge cake, butter...but impatience and timing made this an in-between fudge and mousse birthday treat. Yum.<br />
261. <br />
262. <b>Ingredients</b><br />
263. 2/3 cup of raspberries<br />
264. 3 Tbsp of cocoa (Fry's is free of everything)<br />
265. 4 Tbsp of coconut butter (<i>I did not have this, so I simply dumped some unsweetened coconut in the magic bullet and pulsed away!)</i><br />
266. dash of salt<br />
267. 2 Tbsp of agave (I had agave blue syrup, but agave nectar, honey or maple syrup would all work I think)<br />
268. <br />
269. Magic Bullet: meet all of the above ingredients and do your thing.<br />
270. <br />
271. After everything is mixed, it's like a chocolate pudding type consistency. This only makes enough for two small portions, so do what I did for a quick treat or increase the portions and make a pie! I divided the mix into two little ramekins and put it in the freezer until I couldn't wait any longer.<br />
272. <br />
273. I&#39;m really looking forward to trying out some of the other &quot;naughty treats&quot;, as she calls them on her blog.</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allieschangingkitchen.blogspot.com/feeds/5045697354359291005/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://allieschangingkitchen.blogspot.com/2011/11/chocolate-raspberrybirthday-cake.html#comment-form' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1470734225404456697/posts/default/5045697354359291005'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1470734225404456697/posts/default/5045697354359291005'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allieschangingkitchen.blogspot.com/2011/11/chocolate-raspberrybirthday-cake.html' title='Chocolate-Raspberry....Birthday Cake?'/><author><name>Allie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07581954586003805873</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBBlkH_ADy_sddjEFB4Ujp085lpMIgUhWfHrAoIXcQPiaKBABEuGVFQpYmKEX955d7XhkoCE5XS1pWvCVChstJnugLm-fLhRFFwUYXWNA329ZXMcqCQdW58tN_IS28Bw/s220/318483_10150340432352545_503992544_8190942_1694135906_n.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-K_8cDKDwbDU/Ts0aigzmNtI/AAAAAAAAA4s/ZR1ZpYWZx-8/s72-c/20111121_174622.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1470734225404456697.post-1379135057817900326</id><published>2010-12-02T19:42:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2010-12-02T19:42:23.144-04:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dairy-free"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dessert"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="snacks"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="soy-free"/><title type='text'>Holiday Banking How-To&#39;s</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFK7KMdL2qRRGC6R-UTOA9LeY0euXkpCydmTGYiHhXFs3NtnfMjMhChFBt1ORTsK1LxOQ3CS0BaFQEBHqFuFxibh6Sz5ICQrAbVmnaKLmz22wzfaKdBxHiVz7Qw5qjPm5dsFCGynz81PHp/s1600/P1000444.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;300&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFK7KMdL2qRRGC6R-UTOA9LeY0euXkpCydmTGYiHhXFs3NtnfMjMhChFBt1ORTsK1LxOQ3CS0BaFQEBHqFuFxibh6Sz5ICQrAbVmnaKLmz22wzfaKdBxHiVz7Qw5qjPm5dsFCGynz81PHp/s400/P1000444.JPG&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Every year, my mom, sister and I try to have a baking day together so that we can share and trade recipes and baked goods. &amp;nbsp;It&#39;s a win-win situation where we can spend the day together, while also getting a bigger variety of goodies to take home!&lt;br /&gt;
274. <br />
275. This year, however, presented quite a challenge with finding recipes without sugar and dairy.  You can find one or the other, but both is very difficult.  I will lay out the three recipes that I followed, however, I will not say this is an entirely "sugar-free" post.  Some of these baked goods did have a little bit of sugar added in (not by me), because there was a bit of sugar in the coconut or in the carob chips (maybe?).  I try to live by excluding absolutely all soy and dairy and can live with sugar so long as it's not in the top three of ingredient amounts.  I cut out sugar wherever I can, but sometimes I find I just have to choose my battles.  Soy and dairy seems to be the worst for me, so that's what I focus on.  That being said, I AM strict with sugar...but the reality is is that I'm intolerant to 3 of the most common label items.  Again, choose your battles.<br />

297. <br />
298. So, to tackle the creation of a pie, the most important thing to start with is a pie plate - tin foil or not - not a cake pan.  Running to the grocery store right before it closed on Saturday night, I grab cake pans.  Yikes.  Off to a lovely start.  I also could NOT find maple sugar - anywhere - in that store.There was even a maple display of maple brittle, maple peanuts, maple coffee - two different brand, maple syrup times 7, and maple fudge.  I think those products were mocking me because a simple cup of maple sugar is all I was searching for, but no....<br />
299. <br />
300. To the recipe:  I found this on http//milkallergycompanion.blogspot.com which linked me to http://mykidsallergies.blogspot.com.  Someone here found or invented this recipe, so I'm thankful for that. :)<br />
301. <br />
302. <b>Ingredients</b><br />
303. 14 ounce can of pumpkin pie<br />
304. <b> </b>Just under 2/3 cups of maple syrup (future, I'd use 2/3 cup of maple sugar) + 1/4 tsp of baking soda (omit baking soda if using maple sugar)<br />
305. 1/2 tsp of ginger<br />
306. 1/4 - 1/2 tsp of nutmeg<br />
307. 3 slightly beaten eggs<br />
308. 2/3 cup of rice milk<br />
309. Pilsbury (or homemade?) pie crust<br />
310. <br />
311. <b>What To Do</b><br />
312. My order was slightly different since I mixed everything together and had to cook it at my grandmothers (she saved the day with extra pie plates!), but this is what you'd do:<br />
313. <b> </b><br />
314. <b> </b>1.  Pre-heat over to 375 degrees F.<br />
315. 2.  Put the pie crust into a pie dish.<br />
316. 3.  In a bowl, combine pumpkin, syrup (or sugar), cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and baking soda.  Add the eggs.  Beat/mix until it's just combined.  Gradually stir in the rice milk.<br />
317. 4.  Pour filling into pie crust.<br />
318. 5.  Bake the pie for 35 - 45 minutes.  Cool on a wire rack.<br />
319. <br />
320. We just finished the remaining piece last night, 5 days old and still pretty good!  This pie was a hit at Thanksgiving.  Nothing, of course, beats my Grammie's Pumpkin Pie BUT I do think everyone heard "no cane sugar" and "rice milk" (rice being key) and thought that it would taste completely not like a pumpkin pie.  Leading into their first bite with this mentality, everyone was obviously pleasantly surprised!<br />
321. <br />
322. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div>Really, though, think about it - can you really go wrong with a mixture of pumpkin, nutmeg, cinnamon and maple?  Tasty combination..........!  Tip for next time:  Use maple sugar, not syrup.  Find out why Gram's pie always tastes spicier - perhaps it's the overbearing maple syrup?<br />
323. <br />
324. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />
325. *Pilsbury ready-made crust is dairy and soy-free (small bit of sugar :( ) and is found in the fridge section next to the yogurt at the Super Store.&amp;nbsp; As there was sugar in the crust, I made sure to have a sugar-free filling!</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://allieschangingkitchen.blogspot.com/feeds/4681049643297187401/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://allieschangingkitchen.blogspot.com/2010/10/i-made-pie-i-made-pie.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1470734225404456697/posts/default/4681049643297187401'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1470734225404456697/posts/default/4681049643297187401'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://allieschangingkitchen.blogspot.com/2010/10/i-made-pie-i-made-pie.html' title='I Made a Pie, I Made a Pie!'/><author><name>Allie</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07581954586003805873</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='28' height='32' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBBlkH_ADy_sddjEFB4Ujp085lpMIgUhWfHrAoIXcQPiaKBABEuGVFQpYmKEX955d7XhkoCE5XS1pWvCVChstJnugLm-fLhRFFwUYXWNA329ZXMcqCQdW58tN_IS28Bw/s220/318483_10150340432352545_503992544_8190942_1694135906_n.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_qev1gafAYw4/TLhyBXRQSUI/AAAAAAAAAVI/idg-dw_cyI0/s72-c/2010-10-10+17.05.30.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1470734225404456697.post-6839454333648571745</id><published>2010-10-04T12:46:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2010-10-04T12:46:14.007-03:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dairy-free"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="dessert"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="soy-free"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="Substitutes"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="sugar-free"/><title type='text'>What Remains When You Remove Gluten, Dairy, Nuts, Eggs, Soy, and Cane Sugar from a Cake?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2pMLKaZ_bvzwkp12wAnaS5DJdVPMF4cjE5C67GLQTKDUp8lSgRuz64eci9UmxwL8OI86RdVEyi1KrKdzwIS3pwWIuTKSXCuqfM0O2UoPouTfS_gDnZt5XffjOExl39knS4ozSWa_WMYka/s1600/2010-10-02+23.54.08.jpg&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;240&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2pMLKaZ_bvzwkp12wAnaS5DJdVPMF4cjE5C67GLQTKDUp8lSgRuz64eci9UmxwL8OI86RdVEyi1KrKdzwIS3pwWIuTKSXCuqfM0O2UoPouTfS_gDnZt5XffjOExl39knS4ozSWa_WMYka/s320/2010-10-02+23.54.08.jpg&quot; width=&quot;320&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;When a birthday occurs, everyone has to have some kind of cake...even something cake-like will do!&lt;br /&gt;
326. <br />
327. My friend, Erica, and I celebrated our birthdays together on the weekend and tackled my first ever cake and our first ever cake minus most of the main ingredients...<br />
328. <br />
329. From the Go Dairy Free website, we took the Fudge Pudding Cake recipe and made many substitutions.  The outcome?  Well...it was gooey...people had to hover over the plate to eat their cake as it truly wasn't "passable" on a napkin.  All in all though, can you really go wrong with a mixture including maple and cocoa?  I don't personally think so, but then again, our interest in this cake could have been purely a feeling of being pleasantly surprised!  The cake was gone within minutes (again, out of intrigue more than anything) and no one was sick due to it ... I call it a success!  The recipe is written below, along with my opinions for future cakes with this recipe...<br />
330. <br />
331. <b>Ingredients </b><br />
332. - 1 cup of rice flour (when I make this in the future for anyone without a gluten intolerance, I will use the called for 1 cup of flour.  We learned after wards that we were supposed to add something to the rice flour..oops!)<br />
333. - 3/4 cup of maple syrup, 3/4 cup of maple sugar (this was in place of the called for 1 1/2 cup of sugar, divided).  We added the maple syrup in the cake mixture before realizing that we had the maple sugar.  In the future, I would either use all maple sugar, or would at least use the sugar <i>in the cake</i> and the syrup <i>on top of the cake</i>).<br />
334. - 1/4 tsp of baking soda (not called for in the recipe, but encouraged to use when substituting maple syrup for sugar)<br />
335. - 2 tsp of baking powder<br />
336. - 6 tbsp of cocoa powder<br />
337. - 1/2 cup of rice milk<br />
338. - 1/2 tsp of salt<br />
339. - 1 tsp of vanilla extract<br />
340. - 2 tbsp of oil<br />
341. - 1 1/4 cup of hot water (instead of the called for 1 3/4 cup of hot water)<br />
342. <br />
343. <b>Directions:</b><br />
344. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and 2 tbsp of the cocoa.  Then, we stirred in the syrup, milk, vanilla, and oil until it was all smooth.  Obviously, this step would change if we used dry sugar in the cake mixture, rather than the syrup.  Next, we poured the mixture into a 8inch square cake pan (it did NOT look right, but we continued to go with it...)<br />
345. <b> </b><br />
346. <b> </b>In a small bowl, mix the remaining sugar with 1/4 cup of cocoa.  Sprinkle this mixture over the batter in the pan.  Then, we gently drizzled the hot water on top. It looks weird, but go with it...don't mix it in.<br />
347. <br />
348. We baked the cake in a preheated oven on 350 degrees for 40 minutes.  We reheated it later before eating it... Again, it didn't "look" the greatest, but what could we expect?  At least it was edible and completely fixed my chocolate cravings!<br />
349. <br />

If you would like to create a banner that links to this page (i.e. this validation result), do the following:

1. Download the "valid Atom 1.0" banner.

2. Upload the image to your own server. (This step is important. Please do not link directly to the image on this server.)

3. Add this HTML to your page (change the image src attribute if necessary):

   <a href="http://www.feedvalidator.org/check.cgi?url=http%3A//feeds.feedburner.com/blogspot/toyTf"><img src="valid-atom.png" alt="[Valid Atom 1.0]" title="Validate my Atom 1.0 feed" /></a>

If you would like to create a text link instead, here is the URL you can use:
