Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Mandarin oranges (peeled and segmented, fresh or canned in juice)
- 2 tablespoons Kahlua
- 1 cup Low-fat Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Dark chocolate shavings (optional for garnish)
- 2 leaves Fresh mint leaves (optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, mix the peeled and segmented Mandarin oranges with the Kahlua. Stir gently to coat the oranges evenly with the liqueur. Let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
In a separate small bowl, combine the low-fat Greek yogurt and honey. Stir until smooth and well combined.
In serving glasses or bowls, layer the Kahlua-coated Mandarin oranges and the Greek yogurt mixture. Start with oranges at the bottom, followed by a layer of yogurt, and repeat until all ingredients are used. End with a dollop of yogurt on top.
If desired, garnish each serving with a sprinkle of dark chocolate shavings and a fresh mint leaf for an elegant presentation.
Serve immediately and enjoy your guilt-free Mandarin Orange N Kahlua dessert!
