If the idea of a dessert made without butter, milk, or eggs confuses you, these vegan recipes will change your mind. Besides being lower in saturated fat and cholesterol, many of these sweet treats contain good-for-you ingredients like avocado, almonds, and coconut oil. Not only do these recipes taste good — and, yes, sometimes better — than their dairy-filled counterparts, but you probably wouldn't even know that they were vegan unless someone told you.
