Dairy Free Chocolate Sauce

I stumbled across this dairy free chocolate sauce recipe from Heavenly Homemakers and knew right away I had to try it!

It was delicious! I drizzled some over strawberries, added it to my iced coffee, and just ate a few bites off the spoon! 😉

Sweetened with honey and using coconut milk, this a delicious dairy-free treat that I sure don’t feel bad about having!

Stored in the fridge, it will last about 2 weeks. Enjoy!

Chocolate Covered Everything

Hey chocolate lovers!

It’s not new news that you can dip most anything in chocolate and it tastes delicious! I want to share my chocolate recipe that I use for dipping. Strawberries, apples & bananas are quite delicious covered in chocolate. 🙂  This recipe uses coconut oil which will require you to refrigerate until you are ready to eat the final product. (If you are not interested in that, you can melt a organic dark chocolate bar or chocolate chips and use that instead.)

Coconut oil is a wonderful healthy fat and the cacao powder has some great health benefits which include magnesium & a high antioxidant contentDipping fruit in this delicious chocolate is an awesome combination of healthy fats & carbs making it a wonderful snack option!

Raw Chocolate Mousse

Creamy, chocolate mousse – a healthy version!

I made this chocolate mousse dessert for a client dinner and it was a huge success! My first bite I thought..hmm do I like this? But after it was refrigerated for an hour longer, I was a fan! It is not very sweet so you could add more sweetener if desired. This is great dish for those with food allergies as it is dairy, gluten, nut & egg free.  Give it a try & see what you think!

I tripled the recipe and it was enough for 6 large servings.

Chewy Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies

Soft, chewy, peanut butter oatmeal cookies…need I say more?

Not only do they taste amazing but they are gluten free and have ground flax seed in them which boosts the fiber content! And for those with digestive concerns, these are a perfect treat! ( I might have had 2 for breakfast the next day)

Remember to check the ingredient list on your peanut butter. It should only contain peanuts and maybe some salt! You can also use a different kind of nut butter if you prefer.

Strawberry Chocolate Chip Muffins

These strawberry chocolate chip muffins were a hit with the kids and the adults liked them too! 😉  Unlike most recipes on this blog, this one is not gluten free.  (If you are needing it to be gluten free, try using oat flour or your favorite gluten free flour mix.)  You can also use spelt four in place of the wheat.
