Does anyone have any good dairy free dessert ideas, that are really indulgent and delicious?

I have just gone dairy free (DS2 seems to have issues with it, in my breastmilk )and I want to have something really yummy on xmas day.

if you're ok with soy then you could have that as icecream?? Or a sorbet? Or make a chocolate pudding dairy free, you know the self saucing type ones? Then put the ice-cream on top.

Lite Licks soy icecream - the chocolate one - is the only soy icecream that I liked. I tried a few, and some even my sow wasn't overly impressed with!!

You can make fruit crumbles/sponges etc with margarine in place of butter but they are not especially decadent.

Whittakers dark choc is dairy free, so you could make something with that (or just eat that!!).

Perhaps a really rich chocolate cake with marg in place of butter and whittakers dark choc? Actually, pams dark choc chips are dairy free too.

If it makes you feel any better, DD went from 20 hours of desperate screaming in response to me eating a sandwich with dairy in the margarine when she was 5.5 months old, to me drinking a cup of tea with milk (I had a brain explosion and forgot I was dairy free - whoops!!) and not seeing any response from her when she was 7.5 months old. These days, she can even eat the dairy herself, although in limited quantities. So I know it's hard, but it's not forever

I just made the Annabel Langbein "Strawberry Cloud cake" Its unreal! My wee boy is dairy free and he demolished it. You wouldn't even need to put it on a base you could just put it in a icecream container and scoop into meringue.

Here you go:

150g plain sweet biscuits (made into fine crumbs)
1/2cup dessicated coconut
1 1/2 tsp cinnamon
100g Olivano, melted
Mix altogether and line a 26-28cm spring form cake tin lined with baking paper.Refrigerate while preparing base.

Filling:
2 egg whites, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 punnet strawberries
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla extract

Place egg whites, sugar, sliced strawberries, lemon juice and vanilla in a clean dry bowl of an electric beater. Beat on high for 6-8 mins until mixture is very thick and fluffy and hte sugar is dissolved. You should not feel any gritty sugar after this time. If you do beat for longer.
Spoon over chilled base, smooth top, cover with baking paper and freeze for at least 4 hours. Will keep in airtight container in freezer for up to a month.

Yay Peanut!!  I was really disappointed at missing the recipe for that when she made it on the tv programme - I was kind of half watching and then assumed I'd be able to goole it (but didn't pay attention to what it was called!).  So thanks for posting it!
