lily’s
chocolate cheesecake
Homemade
Peanut free, nut free
This is a simple no-bake recipe.
INGREDIENTS FOR CRUST
• Graham crackers (about 8, nut free…Lily likes Honey Maid)
• Butter (about one stick)
INGREDIENTS FOR FILLING
• 2 - 8oz cream cheese, softened
• ½ C. sugar
• 16oz Don’t Go Nuts Chocolate Soy Butter
• 2 ripe bananas
• ¼ t. vanilla extract
TOPPINGS
• Fresh raspberries
• Whipped cream
INSTRUCTIONS
Pulverize nut-free graham crackers and mix with butter into a consistency
where the graham crackers, when pressed in, form a nice coherent crust in a pie
dish. A little too wet is better than a little too dry. One stick usually does the
trick.
In a large bowl or mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Blend in
DGN Chocolate Soy Butter, bananas and vanilla until no streaks remain. Pour
into crust. Cover and chill for 4 hours.
Add raspberries and whipped cream before serving.
Enjoy!

Turkey
terrifics
Peanut free, nut free
This is Lily’s favorite no-nut after-Thanksgiving lunch. Always remember to
only eat what you know to be safe. We only eat what we make or what we are
absolutely certain was prepared in a facility free from nuts. The magic of Turkey
Terrifics is the stuffing. It may seem a little detailed at first but enjoy the process.
We promise it will be worth it.
INGREDIENTS FOR TURKEY TERRIFICS
• Great bread
• Mayo
• Leftover turkey
• Stuffing (recipe follows)
• Cranberry sauce (recipe follows)
INGREDIENTS FOR SAGE CORNBREAD
• 4 c. corn meal
• 4 c. flour • 1 c. sugar • 8 t. baking powder
• 4 eggs
• Milk (add to the thickness of porridge)
• 3 bunches sage, fresh/chopped/no stems
INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAGE CORNBREAD
Mix dry ingredients first. Add eggs, milk, melted butter and sage to the consistency of thick porridge. Pour mixture into greased pan. Bake in pre-heated 375
degree oven until golden brown on top. You can make this a day or two ahead of
time if you like.

INGREDIENTS FOR SIMPLE SAGE CORNBREAD STUFFING
• 2 bunches of celery • 3 sweet onions • 1 jar of sundried tomatoes, julienned • 1 package of sweet Italian sausage/uncased
• 1 package of hot Italian sausage/uncased • 1 package of Craisins • Organic chicken stock • Butter, 1 stick melted, plus a touch for veggies
• Salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SIMPLE SAGE CORNBREAD STUFFING
Chop celery and onions fine and sweat in a pan on the stove on medium heat for
about 15 minutes with a touch of butter. It should still have a little crunch. Sauté
sausage and make sure there are no large lumps of meat. Cook completely.
Chop the julienned sundried tomatoes fine. In a BIG bowl add the cornbread,
celery, onions, sausage, sundried tomatoes and Craisins. OK, now for the fun
part. Lily loves to do this. After washing hands, mix with your hands. Dig in!
Add a stick of melted butter and some chicken stock until the whole mixture
seems sticky but not too wet. Taste. Add salt and pepper if you like. Fill a baking
dish and bake at 375 degrees uncovered for 20 minutes. Set aside for sandwich
making.
INGREDIENTS FOR CRANBERRY SAUCE
• Bag of fresh cranberries
• 2 c. water or OJ
• 2 c. sugar (I know, sounds like a lot of sugar, but you may even need to add
a little more to temper the tartness.) INSTRUCTIONS FOR CRANBERRY SAUCE
Combine ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce to simmer until desired thickness, usually about 45 minutes. Chill before making sandwiches.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR TURKEY TERRIFIC ASSEMBLY Find the most amazing bread you can and slice (we use tortillas, too). On one
side, spread a layer of mayo, a layer of cranberry sauce, turkey and then a generous helping of stuffing. Top it off with the other slice of bread. Cut in half. Enjoy.

Makes 48 mini pancake muffins
My daughter is sweetly referred to as my Sous Chef in the kitchen. I love spending time with her baking and creating recipes. It’s educational and also a great
bonding experience!
Now that she’s spent the last few years so deeply inundated with cooking and
becoming more allergy aware, I often find her with a bowl and spoon coming up with
her very own creations in the kitchen! This recipe happens to be one of her ideas.
We make pancake muffins (they’re sometimes referred to as “puffins”) for the
school weeks. They’re easy to bake and freeze, so I can just quick reheat for her in
the mornings before we hurry off to the bus stop. One morning, as I was heating
up some pancake muffins for my daughter, Little Miss, she was off to the side of
me “creating,” as she called it, by mixing up some strawberry yogurt and Chocolate Soy Butter to eat.
As she took individual bites of each of the pancakes, then the yogurt mix, she
decided to ice her muffins with the mix instead creating a perfect little “breakfast
cupcake.” I loved it! And so did she. Her idea sparked me to next time whip up
Mini Soy Butter Pancake Muffins and measure out her delicious icing.

INGREDIENTS FOR PANCAKE MUFFINS
• 2.5 c. Gluten-Free AP Flour • 2 T. baking powder • 1 T. oil (or applesauce) • 1 T. flax meal • 3 c. non-dairy milk (we use rice milk) • 1/2 c. Don’t Go Nuts Lightly Sea Salted Soy Butter
• 1/2 Cup of Allergy-Free Chocolate Mini Chips Photo: Keeley McGuire / KeeleyMcGuire.com
INGREDIENTS FOR ICING
• 1 – 5.3oz serving of strawberry non-dairy soy yogurt
• 1/4 c. Don’t Go Nuts Chocolate Soy Butter
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine your flour, baking powder, oil/applesauce and flax. Slowly add 2.5 c. of your 3 c. of non-dairy milk
required. Add Don’t Go Nuts Lightly Sea Salted Soy Butter. Mix until a smooth
batter is formed. Gluten Free Flour often requires more moisture. It was at this
point I slowly added in the last 1/2 c. of non-dairy milk, as needed, to smooth
out the batter.
Lightly grease a mini muffin tin pan. Fill each cavity about 3/4 full with the batter. Bake for 20-22 minutes or until it passes the “toothpick test.” Remove from
oven and let cool in pan for 3-4 minutes, then transfer Pancake Muffins onto a
cooling rack.
In a medium size bowl, combine yogurt and Don’t Go Nuts Chocolate Soy Butter. Mix until a smooth “icing” is formed. Once the muffins are cooled, spread
the icing onto the muffins with a knife or pipe on as you would a cupcake. Store
in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze “un-iced” for
up to 3 months.
