Vegan Dessert Recipes That Even Butter Lovers Will Crave

No butter? No problem.
By 

Taste Senior Editor, HuffPost

Going vegan can seem like a daunting commitment -- no milk? No eggs? No BUTTER? But, thankfully, there is one thing you definitely don't have to give up on as a vegan: Dessert. Ice cream, cakes, pies and cookies are still all very possible (and 100 percent delicious) on this animal-friendly diet.

Just because we've grown up thinking that we needed eggs to make our cakes rise and butter to make them rich, doesn't make it true. And vegan desserts prove that. While vegan desserts aren't quite like traditional desserts, they're just as good. Sometimes even better.

We found some that even butter freaks will go nuts over -- 30 of them to be exact.
