In VEGAN CHOCOLATE, Fran Costigan, hailed as the “queen of vegan desserts,” offers recipes for chocolate cakes, brownies, truffles, puddings, ice creams, and more that will appeal to every chocoholic—vegan or otherwise. And while committed vegans already know it can be difficult to find truly indulgent desserts that accommodate their diets, this breakthrough book will delight them and unite everyone and anyone who madly, deeply, and truly loves chocolate.
In VEGAN CHOCOLATE, you will find better-for-you interpretations of 120 favorite chocolate desserts: flavored chocolate truffles, Brooklyn Blackout Layer Cake, Éclairs, White and Dark Chocolate Cheesecake, Black-Bottom Cupcakes, Chocolate Pecan Pie, Mocha Crème Brûlée, Brownie Crumble Ice Cream, and even Moon Pies made with homemade vegan grahams. All of the recipes are plant-based, some are gluten-free and some are raw. Every single one is absolutely chocolate and made with quality, easily sourced ingredients, without dairy, eggs, or white sugar.
From setup and baking to storing and keeping, Costigan’s detailed instructions make for perfect results every time. With full color photographs by Kate Lewis throughout, VEGAN CHOCOLATE is a beautiful must-have edition for any cookbook collection.
