Mocha Chocolate Chunk Cookie Bars

Mocha Chocolate Chunk Brownies
Cut them small if you will want to, my family refused to have such limits on their portions.  I divided the first batch into 16 pieces.  The second batch was cut into 12.  They much preferred the larger brownies.  These were deemed blog worthy by both family and non-vegan friends.  :)  Definitely, try it with the vegan chocolate chunks not mini chips. I have made it both ways and the chunks were unanimously deemed better.

1/4 Cup Cocoa Powder
1/2 Cup Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
1/4 Cup Spelt Flour
1/4 Cup Coconut Flour
1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/3 Cup Canola Oil
1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2 Cup Coconut Sugar
1 Tablespoon Vanilla
1 Cup Vegan Chocolate Chunks
1/2 Cup Hot Coffee mixed with 2 Tablespoons Golden Flax Seed Meal

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. 

Place baking parchment in a 9 inch square baking pan.

Combine flax mixture with vanilla and oil in a large bowl.

In a separate bowl whisk together cocoa powder, flours, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

Stir sugars into wet ingredients.  Mix until smooth.

Sift dry ingredients into wet ingredients. Stir until well combined. Stir in chocolate chunks.

Pour batter into prepared pan and bake for 22-23 minutes.

Let cool in pan on wire rack for 10 minutes before using parchment to lift brownies onto counter.

Cut into individual servings and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Cool, Creamy, and Delicious

Vegan Cherry Cream Cheese Pie My husband has been craving the Cherry Cream Cheese Pie he remembers from the summers before we went vegan. Our kids are less picky just wanted something sweet and cool. Today, I realized I was up to the task with a little help from Mama Pea with a vegan version of sweetened condensed milk . It looks like the old pie, it smells like the old pie, and yes, it tastes like the old pie. You can't see it, but I am definitely doing a victory dance here. As always, my non-dairy milk of choice for the sweetened condensed is So Delicious Coconut Milk. You are lucky I was able to get a camera shot of this it is disappearing fast. Next time, I might try adding another 4 oz of Cream Cheese substitute or using full fat canned coconut milk instead of So Delicious for the non dairy sweetened condensed milk to try for a thicker consistency, but the taste was awesome, as is.  Seriously, you should try it right now.

Pizza Lounge in Dallas

Vegan Sofa King at Pizza Lounge We had the opportunity to try a vegan pizza night at Pizza Lounge . We were lucky enough to choose Sunday evening as the time to go. On this particular Sunday, they had live music. The music was played by a great group of guys known as The Poor Kings . We ordered the Un-humus appetizer and a vegan version of PL's Sofa King. Check out the menu for the details on all the pizzas they can make vegan for you.  The un-humus could use more salt, garlic, and extra virgin olive oil, but the flat bread was awesome.  As for the pizza, they tossed on every one of their vegan meat substitutes with a decent sauce and excellent crust.  I would have like some more vegetables and an addition of olives, but it was a good pizza, and a great funky atmosphere to go with the live band.  I would highly recommend you try it out if you are ever in the area.  If it is Sunday night and The Poor Kings are playing, I might just be there. ;)
