RECIPE

Vegan Flourless Chocolate Cake

Craig Hall, Frisco STYLE Magazine’s 2014 Person of the Year, shared his favorite recipe with us from fab-
lunch.com. WARNING: NOT FOR THE NOVICE BAKER!

FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE 1/2 tsp. baking soda
2/3⅔ c. of quinoa (2 c. of cooked quinoa) 1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 c. almond milk Baking spray
1⅓ c. applesauce 1 c. strawberries
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. agave nectar VEGAN CHOCOLATE GANACHE
3/4 c. melted coconut oil 1-1/2 c. dark chocolate (70 or 85% cocoa solids)
3/4 c. coconut palm sugar 2/3 c. coconut milk
1 c. cocoa/cacao 3 tbsp. agave nectar
1-1/2 tsp. baking powder Pinch of salt

FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE CAKE
Preheat oven to 350F/175C. Grease two 8-inch baking pans with baking spray or coconut oil and line the

bottom with parchment paper. In a blender, combine almond milk, applesauce, vanilla and agave nectar.
Blend for about 20 seconds. Then, add cooked quinoa and melted coconut oil. Blend all ingredients for
another 30-40 seconds until smooth.

In a large bowl, mix together coconut palm sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Add the
quinoa mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix well so that all ingredients are well incorporated. Divide evenly
between the two baking pans and bake for 1 to 1 hr. and 20 mins. After an hour, check if your cake is ready
by inserting a knife or toothpick. If it comes out clean, your cake is done.

Remove from the oven and let cool completely in the baking pans. Meanwhile, wash strawberries and
cut them lengthwise. When the cake is completely cool, place the first layer on a plate. You want to invert
it so that the surface is flat. Cover with ⅓ of chocolate ganache and strawberries.

Place the second cake layer on top and frost the top and the sides of the cake with the rest of the
ganache. To decorate the cake with strawberries, start by placing a ring of strawberries with their points
facing out. Continue layering rings of strawberries around the cake, overlapping each layer, until you reach
the centre.

VEGAN CHOCOLATE GANACHE
Heat coconut milk in a small pot over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Melt chocolate in
a double boiler. If you don’t have one, fill half of a medium pot with water
and bring to a simmer. Place a ceramic or glass plate on top of the
pot. Add chocolate to the plate and melt, stirring occasion-
ally. Remove coconut milk and chocolate from the heat
and combine. Add pinch of salt and agave nectar.
Mix well. Let set at room temperature for 1h 30
min to 2 hours.

NOTES
Prepare quinoa the usual way. Except,
after simmering it for 10 minutes,
turn off the heat and leave it on the
burner for another 10 minutes. This
will give quinoa fluffier texture. The
cake can be stored in an airtight
container in the refrigerator for up
to 1 week or in the freezer for up to
1 month. Serves 14.

Hutchins BBQ Catering Co. has arrived ...

Hutchins BBQ Catering Co. FOR A BUSINESS OWNER, the best “problem” in the world is too much business. It is, at
9225 Preston Rd. once, both a blessing and a challenge. Hutchins BBQ in McKinney began consistently testing
Frisco, TX 75034 their 90-person capacity during lunch and dinner, along with large catering orders behind the
scenes. This was the very “problem” facing Owner Tim Hutchins. His solution? Expand the
Catering Line: brand, while still giving each location a unique identity. Rest assured, Hutchins BBQ is still
there on Tennessee Street, serving the same incredible smoked meats and home-style veggies,
(972)540-1920 but Hutchins BBQ Catering Co. has arrived to shoulder the catering load.

Originally, there was the question of location, but that mystery was short lived. No one
ever wonders,“Why Frisco?” They wonder,“Why not?!” Frisco, TX has been one of the fastest
growing cities in the U.S. for the past decade. Families are drawn here from all over, and
are rewarded with amazing schools, restaurants, shopping options, sporting venues, business
opportunities, etc. When it comes to the current hot spot in northern DFW, one would be
hard pressed to argue any city better fits the bill than this one.

Located on the northwest corner of Preston Rd. and Main St., Hutchins BBQ Catering
Co. aims to provide the same level of quality and service found at the McKinney location, but
with an added twist. The primary focus will be on catering, offered as both delivery and full
catering service for an unlimited number of people and in-house groups of up to 200 people.
Lunch is only served between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. (or sold out!) from Wednesday to Sunday. At
this time, dinner is not served at the Frisco location. In other words, catering aside, BBQ fans
have only a few hours, five days a week to savor what some consider the best BBQ in the area.
Matter of fact, Hutchins BBQ in McKinney was named “The Best Barbecue Joint in DFW” in
a 2014 Dallas News readers’ poll.

Despite a surge in popularity as of late, Hutchins BBQ had humble beginnings. Known
as “Roy’s Smokehouse” back in 1978, it was originally just a little place connected to Owner
Roy Hutchins’ home. To satisfy demand, he moved the restaurant to its current McKinney
location back in 1991. Roy retired 15 years later, leaving the business to his son, Tim. Things
were good until a fire in June 2012 shut down Hutchins BBQ for six months.

While a tragedy should never be called by any other name, Tim and his staff were
noticeably more focused when the restaurant reopened. Taking nothing for granted, their
goal was to rise from those ashes and serve the best barbecue in the state. They increased the
quality of their ingredients, changed up a few recipes and demanded the highest grade of
brisket from their suppliers. Sure enough, the accolades started rolling in, and Hutchins BBQ
was listed in the Texas Monthly “50 Best BBQ Joints in the World.”

Now that Hutchins BBQ Catering Co. has landed in Frisco, stop by and see what you
think! Or, give the catering team a call and allow them the opportunity to serve you!

You may be going through a trial right

God is in control.

In your weakness, and through your

to everyone around you when all you have
to give each day comes through the power
of God. Your confidence will also continue
to grow, as you stand firm through trials.
May you overflow with strength and hope.

After Miss Katy’s husband passed away
in 2001, she involved herself in Frisco’s
Heritage Association, a group of local,
volunteer citizens whose goal is to pre-
serve the heritage of Frisco. Miss Katy
served on various committees, helped
with their scrapbooks and received an-

Today, at 90 years old, Miss Katy is well.
Her daily routine includes waking early,
preparing her own breakfast, complet-
ing her laundry, picking up the house,
working on her scrapbooks and check-
ing her neighbors’ mail. Then, it’s on to
time with friends, neighbors and charity
work. When asked about her secret to a
long, fulfilling life, Miss Katy smiles and
then said thoughtfully, “Hmmm.... I don’t
know.” Ms. Waldsmith jumps in and says,
“Oh, Miss Katy — you stay busy, and you
are always giving back!” Miss Katy added
with a smile, “Well, I do like crossword
puzzles ... maybe those help me think.”

We think it’s much more than that ... it’s
her heart of gold.

DID YOU KNOW

KENNA’S KIDS
Kenna’s Kids is a nonprofit organization reaching out to individual families with children experiencing life’s medical challenges at a young
age. The basis of this nonprofit organization is built around the pay-it-forward concept. The growth of this organization and support of
additional families will come from those they’ve helped in the past. They are excited about the future of Kenna’s Kids and blessed to be
able to support the emotional and financial needs of many more families in the future.

Matt and Sunshine Kucholtz’s daughter, Kenna, was born with metopic synostosis, a medical condition in which the front of her skull
was abnormally fused shut. At nine months, Kenna required surgery to help correct this problem. With medical bills totaling more than
$100,000, Jeremy and Kat Pigott organized a surprise, charity golf tournament in 2008 to help their friends cover their medical expenses.
From this, the idea of creating a foundation to help other families in similar situations emerged. With the remaining funds from the tourna-
ment for Kenna, Mr. Kucholtz and Mr. Pigott created a 501(c)3 charity, Kenna’s Kids.

The first of many fundraising events, the Kenna Cup was held in 2008 at a newly-developed golf course in Frisco, Frisco Lakes Golf Club.
At that time, Frisco Lakes had few amenities to offer — no clubhouse and only a singlewide trailer, which served as the pro shop. The 110
participants, 12 volunteers and the handful of sponsors were there for one reason — to help a little girl and her family, which most of them
didn’t know. This is how the Kenna Cup was born.

This past June, the Sixth Annual Kenna Cup was at that same course in Frisco, which is now a beautiful, fully-developed facility. The
Kenna Cup serves as the charity’s biggest fundraiser of the year. The event was a weekend of fun, laughter and tears. There were four
tournaments with more than 1,300 participants, volunteers and sponsors — all to help four small children and their families.

You can now sign-up for the Seventh Annual Kenna Cup to be held at Frisco Lakes Golf Club on June 20 and 21, 2014. For more informa-
tion, please visit kennaskids.org.

GIRL SCOUTS OF NORTHEAST TEXAS APPOINTS CEO
The board of directors of the Girl Scouts of Northeast Texas (GSNETX) announced that it has appointed current Executive Vice President
and Chief Operating Officer Jennifer Bartkowski as chief executive officer, effective May 12, 2014. Ms. Bartkowski succeeds Colleen Walker
following her appointment as the Eugene McDermott CEO of the Perot Museum of Nature and Science in Dallas last month. She has
been with GSNETX since 2009, when she joined the council as chief development officer. During her tenure, GSNETX has seen significant
growth in its annual and capital fundraising campaigns. As chief operating officer, she added focus and innovation to new programming

BEACH DAY FOR BROOKE
Friends and family of Brooke Foster are asking for prayers and support as she continues her fight with stage 4 Osteosarcoma, a very rare
case of bone cancer in her leg that could spread to other parts of her body. Brooke, who just turned 16 in March, is now receiving aggres-
sive chemotherapy treatment and will soon have surgery to remove the tumor. In an effort to help Brooke’s family with hefty medical bills,
which are accruing quickly, friends and family are coming together to raise funds at “Beach Day for Brooke.” The event will take place at
Grover’s Grill and Bar in Frisco, 9305 Preston Rd., June 29, 2-10 p.m. The “concert benefit” will consist of four bands, volleyball, a silent
auction, a raffle and guest speakers. Sponsorships are available for this event and an account is also set up for Brooke at Chase Bank. For
more information, email [email protected] or call 214.683.1849. Together we can help Brooke have a fighting chance!
