Ingredients
- 1 can (20 oz) of pineapple chunks (in juice or light syrup)
- 1 cup of coconut cream (chilled)
- 2 tablespoons of maple syrup (adjust based on sweetness preference)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon (optional)
- Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Coconut Cream
- Chill the Coconut Cream: Place a can of coconut cream in the refrigerator overnight. This will help separate the cream from the liquid.
- Scoop the Cream: Once chilled, open the can and scoop out the solidified coconut cream into a mixing bowl, leaving the liquid behind.
Step 2: Mix the Ingredients
- Whip the Cream: Use a hand mixer or a whisk to beat the coconut cream until it’s fluffy and smooth.
- Add Sweetness: Add the maple syrup, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using) to the whipped coconut cream. Mix until fully combined.
Step 3: Assemble the Dessert
- Layer the Ingredients: In serving glasses or bowls, layer the pineapple chunks and whipped coconut cream. Start with a layer of pineapple, followed by a layer of cream, and repeat until the glasses are filled.
Step 4: Garnish and Serve
- Add Finishing Touches: Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness.
- Chill (Optional): For an extra refreshing dessert, refrigerate for about 30 minutes before serving.
