Vegan Chocolate cake - browny like and tofu fudge mocha bars recipes :)

May 24, 2002

I got both of these recipes from allrecipes.com

for the chocolate cake I use vegan dark chocolate shavings , nuts , orange

rind and orange juice in place of the water - truly decadent ,

yummy ! be sure to oil the pan well as this is very moist and sticky ; quite

brownie like especially when made in a large rectangular cake pan ,Though

this recipe calls for white sugar its easily adapted to make it truly vegan

..

I haven't tried the tofu fudge mocha recipe but think I will make it

for company this memorial day along with a few recipes from the Chili pepper

site , thanks for that link !

on the allrecipe site someone who reviewed this said that Pillsbury has a

vegan chocolate icing - does anyone know if that is true ? just curious ,
