Coconut Cream Layered Dessert

Preparation Steps

1. Prepare the Coconut Cream:

• In a saucepan, whisk together coconut milk, sugar, and cornstarch over medium heat until it thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Stir continuously to prevent lumps.
• Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Let it cool to room temperature.

1. Whip the Cream:

• In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add a bit of sugar to taste, continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.

1. Assemble the Layers:

• In a clear glass dish or individual cups, start with a layer of cookie crumbles at the bottom. Follow with a layer of coconut cream, then a layer of whipped cream.
• Repeat the layers until you reach the top of the dish, finishing with a layer of whipped cream.

1. Chill and Serve:

• Refrigerate the dessert for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the layers to set.
• Before serving, top with toasted coconut flakes for an extra crunch and a beautiful presentation.

Tips for Customization

• Fruit Additions: Consider adding fresh fruit like pineapple or mango between layers for a tropical twist.
• Chocolate Lovers: Drizzle some chocolate sauce between the layers for a decadent touch.
• Dairy-Free Option: Use coconut whipped cream and dairy-free cookies to make this dessert suitable for those with dietary restrictions.
