Ingredients

Graham Cracker Layer

1/2 cup graham crackers crumbs
1 tablespoon Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
1 1/2 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

Chocolate Cream

1 can (about 14 oz) coconut milk (not low fat)
3 tablespoons Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
4 tablespoons water
1 cup (55-60% cocoa) best quality chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Whipped Cream

1/4 cup whipping cream
2 teaspoons Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
Raspberries or other fruit as desired

Directions

If using graham cracker crumbs, preheat oven to 350°F. Crush enough graham crackers to obtain 1/2 cup. Add sugar and melted butter and combine well. Scatter on a parchment-lined cookie sheet and place in oven for approximately 8 minutes or until fragrant. Set aside.
In a saucepan combine coconut milk, sugar, and water. Whisk ingredients to a boil and remove from heat. Let cool for a minute.
Add chocolate and whisk mixture until smooth. Add vanilla.
Place pan in a bowl filled with ice cubes and stir occasionally using a spatula. Once cream obtains consistency of very soft sour cream, proceed with filling glasses.
Place a generous tablespoon of graham/cookie crumbs on bottom of each glass.
Pour or spoon cream into each glass until it reaches just under the middle.
Spoon a layer of graham/cookie crumbs on chocolate cream.
Fill glasses with remaining cream and place in the refrigerator until completely firmed, about 2 -3 hours or overnight.
When ready to serve, scatter remaining crumbs on surface. Whip cream, sugar, and vanilla in a cold bowl until medium firm peaks form and place a dollop on top.
Place fruit on top and serve.
