I found a recipe for a quick chocolate pudding that is entirely cornstarch-based, no egg involved; you could replace the milk with almond milk and get a perfectly serviceable vegan dessert. It takes about ten minutes to make and is remarkably tasty; I don't miss the egg yolks at all.
I tried it tonight with brown sugar cooked with a little butter instead of white sugar and cocoa powder. The butterscotch flavor came out just fine, but without the cocoa to add a bit of bitterness and bulk it up a bit, it's too thin and too sweet - I do miss the egg on this version. Ah, well. It's still better than Jello instant, and almost as fast.

So far, I have failed to find a Bakery AU for either the Ghostbusters (any version) or the Monkees. (Dammit, I have a thing for foursomes, don't I?) In fact, there are remarkably few Monkees AUs at all, which given the structure of the show is a little bit surprising. I am not sure whether I think this is a relief or a minor disappointment.
I guess this is my fault for liking pre-Internet shows, but the Teeming Hordes usually come up with at least one ridiculous thing when I go looking for it.
