  1. Absolutely fantastic. I think I'd like to try it with coconut oil next time, but that's just because I'm accustomed to butter and somewhat sensitive to the margarine taste. Nonetheless, this recipe came out delightfully thick and creamy, with that perfect rich chocolate flavor for my nondairy chocolate cupcakes. Thank you so much for posting this!
     
  2. Great, I always use this frosting when I need a parve dessert after a fleishig meal. Thanks. It is delicious.
     
  3. I used coconut oil instead of margarine, and had to add more warm water than expected (because of the coconut oil?)...but the end result was fantastic! All of my friends loved it and nobody guessed that it was dairy-free until I told them.

Most of my recipes are dairy free since I discovered many years ago that I am lactose intolerant. While I have had to give up some much-loved recipes, we have discovered that most can be modified to accommodate the changes to our diet. Most of my recipes say dairy free but there are a few from my childhood that may have dairy! I also have an intolerance to MSG so we spend a lot of time reading labels. Usually, it is just easier to cook from scratch, so we don't use many pre-made foods from the grocery store.</p> I like recipes I can make with minimal ingredients, real food I have in my kitchen, that are also easy to make!
