Ingredients

  1. 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  2. ½ (14 ounce) can coconut milk
  3. 1 ⅔ cups milk
  4. 3 egg yolks
  5. 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  6. 2 ½ cups shredded coconut
  7. ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  8. ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
  9. ¼ cup milk, or as needed
  10. 15 ladyfingers
  11. 1 ¼ cups shredded coconut
  12. 1 tablespoon shaved dark chocolate

Instructions

  1. Combine sweetened condensed milk, coconut milk, milk, egg yolks, and cornstarch in a saucepan over low heat; cook, stirring constantly, until thickened into a custard, about 10 minutes.
  2. Divide custard between 2 bowls. Mix 2 1/2 cups shredded coconut into the first bowl of custard. Fold cocoa powder into the second bowl of custard. Let custard mixtures cool, about 10 minutes.
  3. Beat cream in a chilled glass or metal bowl with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
  4. Pour 1/4 cup milk into a shallow bowl. Dip ladyfingers briefly in milk and arrange in the bottom of a glass trifle bowl. Spoon coconut custard on top. Layer remaining ladyfingers and chocolate custard on top. Smooth whipped cream over the top.
  5. Place 1 1/4 cup shredded coconut in a small skillet over low heat. Cook and stir until toasted and fragrant, 3 to 5 minutes. Let cool.
  6. Sprinkle toasted coconut and chocolate over whipped cream. Cover and refrigerate until flavors meld, about 4 hours.

I loved it

I haven’t made this yet even though it sounds delicious. The picture and the video do not agree with the directions. The directions basically say: lady fingers, coconut , lady fingers, chocolate , etc. It should be lady fingers, coconut, chocolate, and repeat to have 6 layers before whipped cream.
