This looks yummy, i can’t wait to try! I have no corn starch though, so i have to. Boo.
In response to Embyr (and i get that was 4 years ago, but people can be so hard on each other), i just always assume that if i’m at a vegan site or blog, they mean use Vegan Butter. Milk, they mean nutmilk, hemp or soy. I’m sad that the only response to your – Soychick’s – generously sharing your recipe was someone trying to be a smarmy pants.
I’ll post after i hit the grocery & try your cake, soychick!
