Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, chia seeds, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight, allowing the mixture to thicken into a pudding-like consistency.
- Meanwhile, blend 3 of the peeled kiwis until smooth to create a kiwi purée. Slice the remaining kiwi for topping.
- Once the chia pudding has set, layer it in serving glasses or jars, alternating with spoonfuls of kiwi purée and mixed berries.
- Top with sliced kiwi, toasted coconut flakes, and fresh mint leaves if desired.
- Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Notes
- For a smoother texture, stir the chia pudding after the first hour of refrigeration to prevent clumping.
- Feel free to substitute or add other tropical fruits like mango or pineapple for variation.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup according to your preference.
