The office girls and I were huddled around the homemade vegan cheesecake at a recent office birthday party half full of curioustity, half with trepidation. To all our surprise, especially Grace, who made the healthy confection, there was no need to be weary. It had a nice texture and a sugary taste that could fool even the most skeptical milk and cheese lover.

Desserts »Vanilla Cake with Vanilla Frosting
In case I don't mention it enough, I have really great friends! Mike, who has been a huge blog help these last couple weeks, made my birthday-cake dreams come true (I heart vanilla/vanilla!) with a couple of cups of sugar and 2 sticks of butter topped with fresh strawberries and store-bought romantic red roses made of that weirdly yummy plasticy stuff.
Here's his recipe, which comes from Magnolia. Make sure to share the cake itself with as many people as you can, Jim and I felt like decadent fatties with the leftovers in our fridge, though it was fun to stretch my birthday treat (and birthday tummy) for a few more days.
I was so lucky to grow up with such an amazing german pastry shop in my home town. We had the cake pictured for Jim's birthday.
