Equipment

Ingredients

  • 2 hachiya persimmons ripened. See Note 1.
  • 2 cups crushed graham crackers plus more for topping
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tbsp condensed milk
  • dried edible calendula flowers for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream and condensed milk together to stiff peaks.
  • Cut each persimmon in half, then use a spoon to scoop out the fruit. Set aside
  • In a serving glass, add graham crackers, whipped cream, and persimmon in alternating layers. See Note 3.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour to set. Then place it in the freezer overnight.
  • Let it thaw on the counter for 10-20 min before serving. Garnish with graham cracker dust.

Notes

Note 1. You can place a ripened hachiya persimmon in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 1 week. Do not place an unripe persimmon in the fridge as it will slow down the ripening process.
Note 2. The amount of whipped cream, graham crackers, and persimmon can vary based on the size of your serving cup or your personal preference. In our recipe, we used a 10oz wide-mouthed glass cup which we filled completely and were leftover with a small bit of whipped cream.
Note 3. Achieve beautiful, even layers with ease by using a pipette bag for the whipped cream layer. Touch all sides of the glass with the whipped cream to ensure that the layers stay crisp and uniform. This prevents the persimmon layer from leaking into the other layers and ensures a visually appealing presentation.
