Ingredients

Scale

Berry Mixture

  • 2 cups fresh mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

Coconut Cream Base

  • 1 cup full-fat canned coconut cream
  • 1 to 3 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (natural sweetener)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds (optional)

Toppings

  • 1/4 cup toasted shredded coconut
  • A few fresh mint leaves

Instructions

  1. Prepare baking tray and molds: Line 6 small ramekins or silicone molds on a baking tray to ensure easy handling and even setting.
  2. Mix coconut cream base: In a bowl, whisk together the full-fat coconut cream, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Add chia seeds: Stir in chia seeds if desired, distributing them evenly throughout the coconut cream mixture to add texture and nutritional value.
  4. Fill molds: Divide the coconut cream mixture evenly among the prepared ramekins or silicone molds, smoothing the surface slightly with a spoon.
  5. Add berries: Press fresh mixed berries gently onto the surface of each coconut cup to create a vibrant, colorful topping.
  6. Refrigerate to set: Place the tray uncovered in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, allowing the cups to firm up and the flavors to meld.
  7. Garnish and serve: Before serving, sprinkle each cup with toasted shredded coconut and add a few fresh mint leaves for a burst of aroma and visual appeal.

Notes

  • You can substitute honey with maple syrup to keep the recipe vegan.
  • To toast shredded coconut, lightly cook it in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown, stirring constantly.
  • Chia seeds are optional but add extra fiber and help thicken the mixture.
  • Use full-fat coconut cream, not coconut milk, for the best creamy texture.
  • These cups are best consumed within 2 days for optimal freshness.
