Chocolate Chip Espresso Brownies

These chocolate chip espresso brownies are the BEST brownies. They’re moist and soooooo chocolate-y! The instant espresso powder gives them a deeper chocolate flavor that anyone will love. This is adapted with slight changes to a vegan espresso brownie recipe from Pacific Foods. For my version, I use almond milk, safflower oil, and replace the […]

Double Chocolate Baked Donuts

Baking vegan donuts at home is always a treat, especially these delectable double chocolate baked donuts. These are so good topped with a simple sugar glaze, powdered sugar dusting, or even a thick vegan buttercream chocolate icing, like the one included in the recipe. Use colored sprinkles with the glaze or the icing to color […]

Easy Applesauce Bread

I absolutely love this easy applesauce bread recipe from The Simple Veganista. In her recipe, Julie uses unsweetened almond milk to substitute for oil.

Death by Chocolate Mini Bundt Cakes

I like calling these “Death by Chocolate Mini Bundt Cakes” because they are *killer*: little (maybe not little enough) mini bundt cakes of chocolate cake, loaded with chocolate chips and topped with a rich, thick chocolate glaze. Keep the almond milk handy! You’ll need it. You can find the recipe for the chocolate frosting/glaze here. […]
