This incredible, refreshing dessert created by my friend and dietician, Ariadne Legendre, is light yet has an incredible depth of flavour which will have you dreaming of the tropics. She made it for me when we had dinner at their house last year and I begged and begged her to give me the recipe so I could continue to make it at home.
She did me one better and offered to let me publish it so all of you can enjoy it too! I love desserts that are made with coconut because there are so many healthy benefits, such as the ones listed here. It’s also the perfect chilled dessert for entertaining because all the hard work can be done the day before and you are sure to impress your guests with this dreamy dessert!
