Ingredients
  

2 cups ripe mango, diced into small pieces

1 cup creamy coconut cream

1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional for added sweetness)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

1/4 cup chopped nuts (such as almonds or cashews) for an extra crunch (optional)

Instructions
 

Blend Mango Mixture: In a blender or food processor, combine the diced ripe mango, coconut cream, honey (if you prefer a sweeter taste), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy, resembling a thick smoothie.

    Incorporate Shredded Coconut: Transfer the creamy mango mixture to a mixing bowl. Gently stir in the sweetened shredded coconut until well combined. If you're adding chopped nuts for extra texture, fold them in during this step as well.

      Fill the Molds: Using silicone molds or an ice cube tray, spoon the mango coconut mixture into each cavity, filling them evenly. Make sure to leave a little space at the top for expansion as the mixture freezes.

        Freeze the Bites: Carefully place the filled molds in the freezer. Allow them to freeze for at least 4 hours, or until they are completely solid.

          Remove and Serve: After freezing, gently pop the mango coconut bites out of the molds. You can enjoy them immediately, or transfer them to an airtight container to store in the freezer for a refreshing treat later.

            Garnish (Optional): For an added touch of flavor and visual appeal, consider rolling the bites in extra shredded coconut or scattering some crushed nuts on top before serving.
