Tonight I had a craving for chocolate. Ever since I realized that I have an allergy to peanut, I have cut most chocolate out (with the exception of a small Boom Choco Boom square here and there). I used to eat chocolate every day. Although my peanut allergic reaction is pretty small, I decided it best to keep it out of my diet because I believe it made my other food allergies worse. I have yet to find a doctor who agrees with. I digress.
I searched one of my favorite recipe sites for food allergies Food Allergy Mama and found this absolutely delightful (yes chocolate is delight for me) Dairy, Eagg and Nut-Free Chocolate Pudding Cake. It's ooey good and we ate it with ice cream. Our daughter had Purely Decadent Coconut Milk ice cream.
**Side note: I was asking our daughter tonight if the coconut milk ice cream hurt her anywhere. A question I am starting to ask her when she eats foods I'm allergic to or worry should could be allergic to. With my allergies you can't see them, but I can feel them tighten my throat. She told me yes. I thought that was actually odd since this is the second container of Purely Decadent she's devouring. I asked her where she hurt. She pointed to the top of her head. I asked some questions about other foods if they hurt her and she said no to all. I asked if Mommy's milk hurt her and she said yes. I asked where and she told me her cheeks, which is where she gets hives. I asked again about the coconut milk ice cream and she said it hurt the top of her head. I realized she must have eaten it too fast and it gives her an "ice cream headache." Don't you just wish you could get in that little brain sometimes?**
