Equipment
Ingredients
Strawberry Cream Filling
- 11.25 ounces sweetened condensed coconut milk (1 cup)
- 1 cup freeze-dried strawberries
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch salt
Chocolate Coating
- 2 ½ cups chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil
Instructions
Strawberry Cream Filling
- Add freeze-dried strawberries, sweetened condensed coconut milk, vanilla extract, and salt to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Pour into a container and place in the freezer for several hours to set.
Chocolate Coating
- Place a heat proof bowl over a saucepan filled with water (or use a double boiler). Pour the chocolate chips into the bowl over medium heat.*
- Stirring constantly, heat chocolate mixture until smooth and melted. Add coconut oil and turn off heat.
- Place 12 cupcake liners in a muffin pan or on a sheet pan. With a tablespoon sized spoon, spread a tablespoonful of melted chocolate into each cupcake liner, spreading chocolate up the sides of the cupcake liner.
- Pour a spoonful of strawberry cream filling into the chocolate filled cupcake liner. Repeat with the rest of the strawberry filling.
- Pour a heaping tablespoonful of chocolate over each strawberry filled chocolate cup. Let set in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
*Alternatively, you can microwave the chocolate at 30-second intervals until melted.
An 11.25-ounce can of Nature's Charm sweetened condensed coconut milk has 1 cup of Sweetened condensed coconut milk in it, so you'll use the whole can.
You can store these in the fridge or freezer. I do not recommend leaving them out on the counter at room temperature. They'll last longer in the fridge and won't melt.
This recipe will last about a week in an airtight container in the fridge and several months in the freezer.
