‘Twas the night before the big holiday potluck, and all through your kitchen, there were gluten-free flours, non-dairy milks and flax eggs for baking. Who says healthy can’t be a hit? Show off your no-bake dessert-making skills with this velvety vegan fudge, fashioned from creamy coconut butter, raw cacao powder and a splash of mint extract for extra cheer. I promise: sugar sprinkles and red dye #40 won’t be missed!
