Recipe Notes
While this cake is considered "dairy free" you'll want to make certain you check the ingredient list on your margarine. Many brands use whey in their margarine and that is a dairy product. Â
If you have a non-dairy "butter" replacement that you use, that will work in this recipe in place of the noted margarine/butter.Â
As always, follow the recommendations defined by your nutritionist or doctor.Â
