Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries, hulled

1 cup coconut yogurt (or regular yogurt if preferred)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust for desired sweetness)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (for topping)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish, optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberries: If using fresh strawberries, rinse them under cool water and remove the stems. For frozen strawberries, let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to make blending easier.

    Make the Strawberry Puree: In a blender, add the prepared strawberries, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Blend until the mixture is smooth, but feel free to leave a few small chunks for extra texture if you like.

      Combine with Yogurt: In a mixing bowl, gently fold the strawberry puree into the coconut yogurt. Stir carefully until the two are well combined, making sure to leave some distinct swirls of the strawberry mixture for a lovely marbled effect.

        Prepare the Cups: Line a muffin tin with paper liners or use silicone cupcake molds. Spoon the coconut-strawberry mixture into each cup, filling them about three-quarters full to allow room for expansion in the freezer.

          Add Toppings: Generously sprinkle the shredded coconut over the top of each yogurt cup, adding a delightful crunch and tropical flavor.

            Freeze: Transfer the muffin tin to the freezer and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until the yogurt cups are solid and completely frozen.

              Serve: Once frozen, carefully remove the cups from the muffin tin. If you've used silicone molds, simply push them out. Allow the cups to sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly before serving. Optionally, garnish with fresh mint leaves for a burst of color and freshness.

                Enjoy: Serve these fruity treats as a refreshing dessert or a delightful snack!
