My Heavenly Husband led me to make these cups for my children’s birthdays last year. Normally they have to take something to school for a class party, but I didn’t want to send the usual cupcakes because the children only lick off the icing and leave the rest, or don’t eat it at all. So I asked my Husband what I could send to school, and He led me to make these cups, which was a hit with the children! Because it was for groups of children I used non-dairy whipping cream and lactose free custard, I asked the teacher if there were any children with lactose intolerance beforehand.
You can also replace the custard with chocolate mousse or chocolate pudding (in SA we get it in boxes, you just add milk and whip it until firm)
(The amounts I mentioned makes about 18 cups, but you can layer the ingredients to taste)
