No need for baking here. These cups are assembled using only the best, healthy ingredients. Heads up: the coconut milk must go into the fridge for at least 6 hours, so plan ahead. For the cocoa lovers in your life, mix 2 TB cocoa powder or 1 CUP vegan chocolate chips to the coconut cream before inserting into the cups.
