Coconut Oil Shortbread

UPDATE! I made a similar version of these but it's a tiny batch that you can bake in a toaster oven. Check out these Small-Batch Chocolate Covered Cookies ! Is vegan butter available where you live? I never take my precious Earth Balance for granted and it would break my heart (or my belly) if I ever had to give it up. A few weeks ago, Yvonne left me a comment asking about the biscuits that I showed in my quince post . I gave Yvonne the recipe and told her that I made them with Earth Balance. Yvonne didn't let the fact that Earth Balance is not available in the Netherlands deter her from making biscuits, and she went ahead and kicked some biscuit butt with coconut oil instead. Yeah! So now I'm sharing a recipe for my favorite cookie, but made with coconut oil instead of Earth Balance: shortbread! This one's for you, Yvonne! Coconut Oil Shortbread (14-16 single cookies) 1/2 cup refined coconut oil at room temperature* 1/4 cup sugar 2 tsp vanilla extrac

Single-Serving Vanilla Cupcake (With Video! Or not.)

UPDATE! I made a similar version of these but it's a tiny batch of TWO that you can bake in a toaster oven. Check out these Vanilla Cupcakes for Two ! Oh, hello! How are you? Come in! Hurry! Mind the mockingbird out there, he's a biter. Can I offer you a cup of tea? Maybe a cupcake? That's a single-serving cupcake. Would you like the recipe? Why bother making one single cupcake, you ask? I'm glad you asked, for I have made a list of reasons why one might want to go through the trouble of making one single cupcake. I'll take any opportunity to make a list. The possible reasons one might have to make one lone cupcake are as follows. *clears throat* 1. You are on a diet and you want to have a sweet treat without having to bake a whole batch of cupcakes or an entire cake. If you're anything like me, making an entire batch means eating an entire batch. Or, you may want to make one little treat for someone else who is on a diet. 2. You live wit

A Vegan Meringue Topping and a Chocolate Movie

Vegan MoFo continues! This is a picture-heavy post, so I'll try to keep the text on the light side. Also, I will start this one with the daily movie recommendation instead of the foodz, because once you see what I made you will be far too freaked out to read a movie review! Romantics Anonymous is a quirky French movie about two lonely chocolate lovers who suffer from severe anxiety issues. French charm? Check! Qurikiness? Check! Chocolate? Check! Socially awkward characters? Check! Angélique is a super talented but extremely shy chocolatier who finds a job at a chocolate-factory owned by Jean-René, who is possibly even more socially awkward. It's a romantic comedy, so they fall in love and encounter all kinds of funny situations. You probably need to be able to relate to their problems to fully enjoy it, but the characters, the chocolate, the sets, and the music will probably keep you interested even if you are the most outgoing people-person in the history of humankind!

Gastronomus Maximus and Juicer Giveaway!

How exciting it is to get gifts in the mail! Amey , the ever so lovely happy-breakfast eater and neighborhood terror was so kind to send a few of us lucky readers a copy of her Gastronomus Maximus - a "cartoony vegan cookbooklet" full of delicious recipes and adorable cartoon characters. Thank you, Amey! So far I have had the pleasure of making these: Crimson Cabbage Borscht (could this picture BE more saturated?) The borscht was delicious and comforting. It was so beautifully red and chunky too. Even the potatoes turned red thanks to the beets. Magic soup! Diner Loaf (mini loaves with baked potatoes and carrots) This was a yummy non-mushy loaf. I made little loaves instead of a big one because that's just how I roll. Grilled Herb Tofu (I am so proud of this picture!) This tofu was delicious even though it didn't get to marinate for as long as it should have. This might just be my favorite way to eat tofu from now on. "You Go

They're heeeere! Vegantine's Day Strawberry Love Bugs!

(Pssst... there's a brand new Valentine's Day post and it's loaded with chocolate!) Brace yourself for the post with the most pictures eva'! It will hog up all your bandwidth! It will break the interwebs! The planet will implode! Took it too far? The Strawberry Love Bugs are back! Remember the ones I made in 2009 ? These are pretty much the same, except that I printed out their little signs instead of handwriting them. Which one are you teaming up with for Vegantine's Day ? I *heart* You or Love Stinks ? If you've been reading my blog for a while, then you probably know that I always like to throw in a Mr. Grumpy Pants along with the happy faces. You know, for balance. Wanna make some? First you're going to need to wash and pat dry about a pound of strawberries... Then you're going to need about two ounces of melted semi-sweet chocolate chips. I melt mine in the microwave at half power, stirring every 45 seconds. If you'
