My sugar-free coconut delight: smooth, fresh, with coffee biscuits and a chocolate coating (I make it the night before, so the next day I have dessert ready and don’t have to worry about it).
Now, let’s be honest: every now and then, we crave a “real” dessert, one that looks a bit more elaborate, but doesn’t make us panic while eating it: “Oh my God, too many calories!”
This thing—which I call a coconut delight, but which is actually more like a faux tiramisu with Greek yogurt, soaked biscuits, and heavy cream—has saved me more than once.
It’s fresh, nourishing, and has everything going for it: the smooth texture, the chocolate on top, the taste of coconut, but without eggs, mascarpone, or added sugars. And yet… it’s really good, not just for “staying fit.”
Coconut, biscuit, and chocolate cake, healthy and delicious: I never get tired of it.
