The same host that is doing a Valentine's Day Themed show also is asking for a non-dairy recipe. What recipe do you guys have the doesn't have any cream cheese or milk, etc... in it?
 
The crush orange cake is a good one. There is a recipe on here for it. It just uses a box of cake and diet orange soda. You are supposed to put cool whip on it with mandarin oranges but could leave the cool whip out and it would still taste good.
