Vegan Mini Chocolate Cinnamon Pecan Pies

Ever since Thanksgiving, when I had made a really good pecan tart with chocolate chunks and coconut, my Mom has been asking me to make her a pecan pie or tart with cinnamon and dark chocolate. Well, I did not get it made for Christmas. Luckilly there were plenty of other good desserts to go […]
Mini Vegan Pumpkin Pies

Monday I went for a 24 mile bike ride in the morning to enjoy the scenery and give my legs a rest from running. It is just gorgeous here this time of the year! The trees are all sorts of different colors, and when the wind blows they flutter to the ground like confetti. Not […]
Mini Vegan Snickers Cheesecakes

When I was little and dressed up and went out for Halloween, to be honest, the dressing up part was my favorite of everything, even over the candy. It was fun to be able to pretend to be someone or something else for a night. My favorite costume was not all that exciting, a black […]
Mini Vegan Samoa Cupcakes

I was having a day last Friday. By “a day” I mean one of those days. I felt like I could not focus, my brain was not functioning properly and I felt like I was really kind of stressed, and in hyper mode like I had drank too much coffee when I did not have […]
Mini Strawberry White Chocolate Layer Cake

Sometimes I just feel like making a pink girly dessert. Maybe it is the five year old in me that forever wants to wear sparkles and pink. So what if I am 30 I think that way sometimes. So, I decided last weekend I was in that sort of mood and wanted a pink cake. […]
Mini Vegan Caramel Cakes

I have been wanting to make a caramel cake for some time, after seeing one that looked really good on a TV show I was watching, and drooling over another one on Pinterest which had caramel popcorn on top of it. I thought, hey, I can make my own gluten free, sugar free (fruit sweetened) vegan […]
Mini Vegan Neapolitan Cakes

Last weekend I decided I wanted to make a pink cake. But I didn’t have any fresh or frozen berries to make some sort of beautiful berry layer cake, or cheesecake, and I am trying to use what I have at home in my recipes to save money, so I had to think of something else. […]
Vegan Cranberry Orange Hand Pies

I am still on my wanting to make some sort of pie every week kick. But I don’t want to be boring and make the same thing twice, so I decided to try something new. Just pure cranberry pie. You know, cranberries are usually mixed with something else like apples, or pears or whatnot, but […]
Vegan Strawberry Rhubarb Mini Pies with Lemon Crust

I had tons of strawberries and tons of rhubarb on hand last weekend, and I had a serious craving for strawberry rhubarb pie. So I had to make some. Strawberry rhubarb pie has been a favorite of mine ever since I had it in a diner with my Mom when I was about 5. That […]
Raw Key Lime Pie Shooters

I am a big key lime pie fan. It is one of my all time favorite desserts. It has to be the perfect balance of tart and sweet though and not too sweet. My Mom used to make a really good traditional key lime pie that I loved. I have since veganized it though, and […]
Mini Raw White Mulberry Caramel Tartlette for Two

Vivapura recently sent me some white mulberries to try, and ever since then I have been in love with them. They have a wonderful caramel flavor that you would not expect from a berry, and therefore I have been using them in recipes that pair well with caramel such as in my Raw Mulberry Pecan Crunch […]
