This easy no bake Strawberries Coconut Cream Pie is topped with fresh strawberries and drizzled with dark chocolate, in a dark chocolate almond crust. This is a dessert of pure decadence! (Gluten-free, Paleo)
Inspired by my Coconut Cream Pie recipe, I decided to create a similar dessert but with a dark chocolate crust and a creamy strawberry coconut custard.
The crust is a delicious combination of chocolate, almonds and pecans, while the filling is a light, healthy blend of coconut milk, unsweetened shredded coconut and vanilla extract.
