If you haven't noticed, I love a recipe challenge. Better yet, I like to create recipes that are fast, easy and simple as well as allergy-friendly. So of course, as soon as I saw the So Delicious and Go Dairy Free Snackable Recipe Contest, my mind went into overdrive. I mean, creating recipes using So Delicious is awesome (NutriFamily loves their products!) but what truly caught my attention (no reason to lie) are the possible prizes that are being offered. Sharing my recipes is absolutely appreciated but with school beginning soon and more demands of my recipes coming up, let's face it- even Nutrimom could use a little extra help to get all of these demands filled.
Prizes Let's just cut to the chase- we all know that this is the first thing that we look at anyway so here goes. As seen on GoDairyFree here is what's what-
Grand Prize Winners: $1000 Each (3 Winners!)
We want to see those treasured "snackable" dairy-free recipes (up to 2 recipes per category per entrant!), so we're awarding grand prizes to our favorite in each category:

- Savory - One $1,000 Grand Prize Category Winner (gift card or check)

Sharing Time! And now, for the moment that you have all been waiting for (well, not as good as Hey, you won! but still exciting I think) - I present the recipes that I would like to officially submit for this contest.
Sweet Category:
Short Strawberry Cakes
A simple, dairy-free dessert that is so delicious! Get it, so delicious ;)
Strawberries (cleaned & halved)
Your choice of graham crackers (crumbled)
Using a melon baller, gently scoop out a small amount of the strawberries center, leaving the bottom of the strawberry intact. Fill with desired amount of Cocoa Whip and sprinkle with crushed graham crackers.
Bonus Sweet Category:
Eclair Bon Bons
So easy you won't want to share but please do
1 (6 oz) Container So
Delicious Unsweetened Vanilla Cultured Coconut Milk
1 Container So
Delicious Coco Whip topping
Enjoy Life Foods Chocolate
Mini Chips
Winona Pure Coconut
Spray Oil (or other flavor of choice)
Prepare the
Filling:
In a large bowl, mix the dairy free cream cheese and the
cultured coconut milk with an electric beater. Add the whip topping, scraping
the sides of the bowl with a spatula to ensure complete mixing.
Assemble the
Treats:
Place baking cups in large muffin tins and set aside*.
Using waxed paper, flatten the double brownie cookies but making sure they are
still intact. Set aside.
Heat the chocolate chips and a squirt of coconut oil
until melted. Gently place one flattened cookie into a baking cup, leaving an
equal number of cookies for the top. Fill with a dollop of the prepared filling
and place another flattened cookie on top. Cover with melted chocolate, gently
lifting the baking cup to allow the melted chocolate to reach the bottom of the
cup. Cool in the refrigerator until firm.
Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Makes approximately 6 bon bons with additional filling.
*I recommend IfYouCare baking cups

Creamer Cubes
Don't water down your cold beverages when you can enhance them!
Your Choice of So Delicious Coconut Creamer
Optional- cinnamon, cloves, cocoa or other spices
Prepared beverage of your choice (iced coffee pictured)
Shake the coconut creamer well and pour evenly into an ice cube tray. Sprinkle with your choice of spice and gently swirl with a toothpick. Freeze completely.
To remove, use a sharp knife to gently run along the edges of the cubes, then remove. The creamer will still be a bit on the soft side
