What is the best margarine for cookies for someone with dairy allergy?!
I would like to make some sugar cookies that are dairy-free for my milk-allergic friend!. I know some margarines contain whey and that's a no-no!. I want it to taste as close to real butter as possible, yet reasonably priced and readily available - and of course, suitable for baking!. What do you recommend!?Www@FoodAQ@Com

Fleischmann's makes a good unsalted margarine that works well in baking, but I don't know if it has whey in it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
The soy margarines available at health food stores and many large supermarkets are usually dairy-free!. If it has "vegan" on the label, you can guarantee it doesn't have ANY animal products (such as whey)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Margarine doesn't usually have the right consistency for baking !.!.!.!. Use Crisco instead!. It makes for a softer cookie than butter anyways!.!.!.!.(You can buy buttery Crisco too)Www@FoodAQ@Com
We use either Parkay, Imperial or Blue Bonnet!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
