every picture/recipe that you have posted, I have been eying up!  it just all looks so delish!!  do you work at a particular vegan restaurant in chicago?

Years later this thread is still hilarious to me.

meee toooo! I just read through most of it.
There was another thread where she was busted but that one has been removed.
I wonder if she opened her restaurant!???

I wonder if she could really cook at all. It's easy enough to pretend to be someone you're not on the Net; all we really know about a person is what they choose to tell us, which may or may not be true.
After she was busted, I understood why when I sent her a recipe and asked for help veganising it, I got a very vague non-answer response. I bet she was unable to cook. Cut and paste is a lot easier than stew and bake.

I'm guessing Your theory about CL is probably the case, yabbit. I feel like a dick for still bashing this person years later, but dang. What a phony.

And hey, l2a, it's probably okay to repost recipes here in the thread. It's just sharing a recipe, not claiming it as Your own... and if anyone can find the original source (they were all found elsewhere online, right?) they can post a link to it.

it could be that I just really want to make these delicious confectioneries......  >:D

Peanut Butter and Jelly Crumble Bars

That favorite childhood taste in a dessert!

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    2 sticks vegan margarine, at room temperature
    3/4 cup brown sugar
    3/4 cup white sugar
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    egg replacer for 2 eggs
    2 cups creamy peanut butter
    3 cups all-purpose flour
    1 teaspoon baking powder
    1 1/2 cups raspberry, grape, or strawberry jam/jelly/preserves
    2/3 cups salted peanuts, coarsely chopped

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.  Grease a 9x13" pan. Line it with parchment paper, then grease and flour the pan.

2. In the bowl of an electric mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the margarine and sugars on medium speed until light yellow, about 2 minutes. With the mixer on low speed, add the vanilla, egg replacer, and peanut butter and mix until all ingredients are combined.

3. In a small bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder. With the mixer on low speed, slowly add the flour mixture to the peanut butter mixture. Mix just until combined.

4. Spread 2/3 of the dough into the prepared pan and spread over the bottom with a knife or offset spatula.  Spread the jam evenly over the dough.  Drop small globs of the remaining dough evenly over the jam. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts and bake for 45 minutes, until golden brown. Cool and cut into squares.

Serves: 24 bars

Almond Joy Fudge

One word...DELICIOUS

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1 cup vegan semi-sweet chocolate or vegan chocolate chips, coarsely chopped
    3 1/2 cup powdered sugar
    1/2 cup Dutch process cocoa powder
    1/2 cup coconut milk
    2 tablespoon coconut oil
    1/2 t vanilla extract
    1 cup dry-roasted unsalted almonds, roughly chopped, divided
    1 cup unsweetened, toasted, flaked coconut, divided

Directions:

Line a 8" or 9" baking pan with parchment paper, leaving enough to extend a bit up the sides. (Put a little coconut oil or margarine in the bottom of the pan to help the parchment stick).

Mix the chocolate, sugar and cocoa together in a large bowl. Set aside.

Mix the coconut oil and milk together in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Stir and heat until the oil has melted and bubbles just start to form. Remove it from the heat and immediately pour over the chocolate mixture.

Let it sit for about one minute, and then stir well to melt the chocolate completely. (If it seems like its cooled too much, try putting the dish over a bowl of hot water and stirring until smooth.) Add the vanilla, 1/2 cup of almonds, and 1/2 cup of toasted coconut; stir, and then pour into the parchment lined baking pan, pressing it into the corners and smoothing out the top. Scatter the remaining almonds and coconut all over the top and press them into the fudge just a little so they will stick. Let the fudge cool to room temperature, and then place in the refrigerator till completely cooled and hardened, about 2 hours. Cut into squares.

Serves: 32 small pieces
