We have a couple of recipes for cheesecake pies, and we have a ton of frozen blueberries. That part was easy Read More …

Sunbutter and Jelly Cookie Bars

Even though I grew up with a severe tree nut allergy, that didn’t mean that I couldn’t enjoy peanuts. And I did enjoy peanuts! Perhaps not as much as my husband, but I routinely enjoyed lots of peanut products. Back in the days when hubby and I ate peanuts without a second thought, my mom Read More …

Chocolate Wacky Cake

This is a very old cake recipe. It goes back to the depression era when eggs, butter, and milk were both expensive and rationed, so some genius (who is lost in the annals of history) developed this cake. I’ve seen it referred to online as the “Wacky Cake,” “Crazy Cake,” “Depression Era Cake,” and the Read More …

Red Velvet Cupcakes

The kids in Zax’s kindergarten class agreed on foods they wanted at their Valentine’s party, and the only potentially problematic food on the list was cupcakes. I decided to take matters into my own hands and sign up to bring those cupcakes, because I knew I could make some that everyone in the class could Read More …

Cream Cheese Frosting

My husband’s favorite cake is Angel Food. I have tried, in vain, to find an eggless clone of this fluffy, spongy treat. Maybe someday I’ll master it (or more likely, find a recipe from someone else who has mastered it), but for now we must live without it most of the time. I do purchase Read More …

Chocolate Gingerbread Cookies

I’m going to cheat this week. What with Zax’s hospitalization, the flu, launching our business, and normal Christmas craziness, I haven’t done any more baking. Instead I’m going to share what my wonderful Aunt sent to us. This is food allergy loving at its finest! They live half the country away from us, but sent Read More …

Sour Cream Sugar Cookies

My mom came to my rescue this weekend, doing some holiday baking with my kids and providing me with a Christmas recipe! Sour Cream Cookies (Contains wheat and dairy) Ingredients: 1 cup margarine 1 1/2 cup sugar 1 Tbsp Energ-G egg replacer whipped with 4 Tbsp water (2 egg equivalent) 1 cup sour cream 1 Read More …

Dark Chocolate Cherry Fudge

The holiday goodies continue this week with homemade fudge! This was pretty fast to prepare, but you have to do it in advance because it needs to chill for a couple hours. Chocolate is always a hit in our house, so I don’t think these will last for very long! This recipe contains milk and Read More …

Soft Gingerbread

I decided to start the baking season this weekend with a gingerbread recipe! It’s free of egg, soy, peanut, and tree nut. This is a cakey gingerbread, not a hard cookie you would build houses out of. The house smelled wonderful, and it made for a great last-minute dessert to bring to a family gathering. Read More …
