The race is on... The Moonie Pie Contest is in full swing now and I've got an exciting update to share! There's only one more week left to get your moonies made and your submissions in to me. Saturday April 17 is the deadline. The winner will be announced on Sunday or Monday on my blog.
A Little Reminder To...
-Blog about your creation with mention of your 2 ingredient changes, and post a picture, then let me know. If you don't have a blog you can face book it, or email me directly with your photo/recipe.
-Be sure to have an extra moonie on hand, ready to send my way if you're the winner! ;) I will have all three of mine ready to send to you (I know I know, it's tempting not to eat them ALL).
-Check your email Sunday morning, as I will email the winner to arrange for the moonie exchange!
An Update
I've been in touch with a number of people who are getting creative in their kitchie - some folks are even perfecting their filling before making the rest of the cake. Yowsa, we've got some chefs in town, I love it! In my perfect world we'd all get together to share our moonie creations!
Here are some of the folks who have blogged about their amazing looking moonie pies (in no particular order). I am super impressed and want to sample them all.
Nina made tropical moonies! Guava-Raspberry, Pistachio Rose, Tiramisu, and Custard Apple
Bitt made tropical DURIAN moonies!!!
Emma made cute Vanilla Moonies!

Marie-Lies made the banana and vanilla moonie pies in 3 different shapes! She added hazelnut/brazil nut to the cake.
Laurel has come up with an Orange Dream Moonie! She even made a video of her family members trying the pie. Totally cool!

Don't know if I can compete with them! But it will be fun to try!
Yum! Very impressive and amazing! And Bitt? You're so modest my dear. You make yummilicious creations!
I'd never heard of a moonie pie before but they certainly look fabulous!
Oh my goodness, all of those look sooooooooooooooooooooo good... I need chocolate now... raw, of course! :) (the only way to have chocolate!)
If I didn't live in Brazil I would be participating!! The pics are yummy!!!!
I am so impressed! I love eating raw desserts, but I am not good at making them! :) I was never good at baking either! I guess desserts are meant to be made for me!
i have seen a few of these moonpies across the sphere and big congrats to all the particpants...they are all winners in my book. holy choco mania!!!
The competition looks fierce. It's going to be a difficult call, but a tasty one I'm sure :-)

Ah, so excited about the entries thus far... off to check yours out Fitnessista! Yay!
Do you think Stevia powder is a good alternative to Agave Powder? Or perhaps even Yacon root powder - they are the only alternatives I can see.
Well I guess I can try them and see what happens, if you dont try you dont know.
On topic: Those moonie pies look amazing, all of them!
Mel, Noooo! Don't do it!!!!
The agave powder doesn't act as a sweetener in the recipe, but more of a thickener/binder/adds creaminess.
I recommend experimenting with using a little more lecithin and coconut oil. The recipe doesn't actually need more sweetener. ;)
Hehe, I concider myself warned. I have soya lecithin and psyllium husks - do they both do the same job?
I havent tried making them yet as my order of cocao butter hasnt arrived, so its a good job I know now. :)
Whew Mel! caught you in time, hehehe :)
Use the lecithin -the psyllium will make it too gummy.
These look FANTASTIC! :D
I just posted my entry on www.vegancookbookcritic.blogspot.com
Heathy, it is another absolutely fabulous recipe. Thank you for all the fun.
Ooh these alllll look delicious. I love all the eye candy, and I'm sure they're all loving the candy-candy. ;)
This is AWESOME!
