Dairy Free/soy Free Muddy Buddies?

I have been craving something crunchy and chocolatey lately and I want to try to make these: Open Original Shared Link

The only problem is I'm allergic to dairy and intolerant of soy. I know there is Earth Balance spread that is soy free and dairy free. I also have considered using coconut oil (which is a solid at room temp). I have not had any experience with either one of these however. I use olive oil in pretty much everything when I bake. I'm guessing oil won't work however and it needs to be a solid of some sort that will re-solidify? Has anyone tried to make these or a similiar no-bake cookie recipe with a dairy-free/soy-free sub?

I don't see why it wouldn't work with a little coconut oil or you could use a bit of Spectrum Shortening. Maybe add a little cocoa powder to thicken it up a bit.

You could cut the recipe down to 1/4 of what it is, and try making a small batch to test the hypothesis. ;) Reviewers will be standing by. :)

Thanks, I was not aware of Spectrum shortening. I just looked it up and it's nothing but Palm oil it seems. I will have to look for that. I probably won't get around to making this for a few weeks. I'm hoping someone else has already done it and knows what works. I will have to add more sweetner too since I can't use chocolate with dairy in it--I need to use a very dark bakers chocolate that is dairy free and soy free.

We've made this with alternate nut butters and coconut oil. Daughter loved it but I didn't like it at all. Waaaay to sweet for my taste.

Thank you! So are you saying I don't need to add any extra sugar if I use dark chocolate instead of semi-sweet chips and coocnut oil instead of butter? I have not had these since childhood but I do remember them being very sweet.

I don't know about this recipe in particular, but I did sub Earth Balance for butter in a chocolate chip cookie mix and they came out great! I'll bet it will work.

      Latent celiac, need to go gluten free, advice on kitchen "reset?"

      By ShariW · Posted

      These look great!  I follow several people who frequently post gluten-free recipes online (plus they sell their cookbooks). "Gluten Free on a Shoestring" and "Erin's Meaningful Eats>"

      Latent celiac, need to go gluten free, advice on kitchen "reset?"

      By ShariW · Posted

      When I had to go gluten-free, the rest of my family still ate gluten. They still eat regular bread products and crackers, but there are no other gluten-containing foods in the house. I bought a separate toaster that is only used for gluten-free products, and thoroughly cleaned all cookware, dishes and surfaces. We do have to be very careful with cross-contact, for instance when someone else is making a sandwich with wheat bread. Then I went through my cupboards and pantry, I set aside everything else with gluten and gave it away - flour and baking mixes, pasta, etc. So when I cook any recipe that calls for flour (perhaps for thickening) or bread crumbs like Panko, I only use gluten-free. My...

      How many people also get sick from the following prolamins?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Exactly, everyone with celiac disease technically has an "intolerance" to these: Wheat: The prolamin is called gliadin. Barley: The prolamin is called hordein. Rye: The prolamin is called secalin. Around 9% of celiacs also should avoid oats (but around the time of diagnosis this may be much higher--some will have temporary intolerance): Oats: The prolamin is called avenin. I had to avoid this for 1-2 years after my diagnosis until my gut healed: Corn: The prolamin is called zein. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary...
