Strawberries & Coco Cream


VEGETARIAN, VEGAN, FISH FREE, DAIRY FREE, EGG FREE, NUT FREE, GLUTEN FREE*.

1 punnet fresh strawberries
1 small can (140ml) full-fat coconut cream
1/8 cup of cocoa powder
1/8 cup pure icing sugar (or to taste)**
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. Open coconut cream – it should be nice and thick (thick enough to pipe) – if not, transfer to a bowl and leave uncovered in the fridge overnight. Mix in sifted cocoa powder, sifted icing sugar and vanilla extract. Place into a piping bag and refrigerate to thicken.
2. Using a paring knife, trim the strawberries and hollow out a section from the top of the strawberries without cutting all the way through. There is a slight ‘core’ to the strawberries so this is easier than it looks !
3. Pipe the chocolate cream into the top of each strawberry until just overflowing... and enjoy! You will have some chocolate cream left over with this recipe – it can be refrigerated for a few days if you want to make another batch. Or just eat it straight from the container ... not saying I did ;)

* Be sure to check individual ingredients for any trace amounts or ingredients that vary between brands J
** Pure icing sugar is gluten free but soft icing sugar and icing sugar mixture may contain flour so make sure you read the fine print!
