- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 cup non-dairy milk

- 1/4 cup chocolate chips

This recipe is from the vegan bakery Sweet Avenue Bake Shop in East Rutherford. I never heard of goji berries so I tried this recipe and made it for Mother's Day also. The batter was very thin and liquid like, I do not know if I did something wrong. I tried one and they are different but good, I do not think my family will like them because they are not very adventurous with food like I am. Also, the link above lead to what goji berries are, they seem very healthy. I wonder what else I can do with them! I got them at Whole Food in Paramus.
Correction: I made them a second time for Christian's birthday because he loved them. The batter came out how it is supposed to because I used cocoa powder. The cooking time also is never right! Last time it took 50 minutes, it seems like it will be the same thing this time.
November 2009- I gave this recipe to my friend Bethany from Ramapo because she is vegan and she wanted to share a vegan dessert with her family. She said they were very fudgey and they "were a hit!"
