Ingredients
  

2 ripe mangoes, peeled and diced into small chunks

1 cup Greek yogurt (use plain or vanilla based on preference)

1/2 cup coconut milk (choose either canned or carton for this recipe)

1/4 cup chia seeds

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust according to your sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional but recommended)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mango Puree: In a blender, add the diced mangoes along with a splash of coconut milk. Blend until the mixture reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. Once done, set the mango puree aside for later use.

    Create the Chia Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, the remaining coconut milk, chia seeds, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Whisk everything together vigorously until all ingredients are well blended. Note that the chia seeds will start to swell, creating a thicker and creamier texture.

      Layer the Cups: Select your serving dish or individual cups for serving. Begin by spooning in a layer of the chia mixture (approximately 1/4 cup). Next, carefully add a layer of the mango puree (again, around 1/4 cup). Repeat this layering process until the cups are filled to the top, ensuring the final layer is the mango puree for an attractive finish.

        Freeze the Cups: Once layered, cover each cup tightly with plastic wrap or a secure lid. Transfer the cups to the freezer and let them sit for at least 4 hours or until frozen solid.

          Serve: When you’re ready to enjoy, take the frozen cups out of the freezer and allow them to sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes. This will make them easier to scoop. If desired, garnish with fresh mint leaves for added color and a refreshing flavor.

            Enjoy: Delight in your Tropical Bliss Frozen Mango Chia Greek Cups as a revitalizing snack or a perfect dessert for warm days!
