Time 30m

Yield 1 bowl, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 (13 2/3 ounce) cans coconut milk
1/2 cup whole milk
1 cup cream of coconut
1/2 cup cornstarch
4 egg yolks
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • For the pudding, heat coconut milk and whole milk in a saucepan over medium until it steams.
  • Whisk together 1 c cream of coconut, cornstarch, egg yolks, and salt until smooth. While whisking, gradually pour in half of the hot milk mixture.

  • Off heat, stir in butter and vanilla until butter melts. Transfer pudding to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap, pressing it on the surface. Chill pudding until cool.
  • To assemble, layer banana slices on bottom of a 5 qt trifle dish (or glass bowl), Top banana with a third of the pudding and a layer of wafers. Repeat layering two times, top with final layer of bananas, cover and chill until cold.
  • For the whipped cream, beat heavy cream and 1/2 c cream of coconut with a mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form. Top dessert with whipped cream and garnish with toasted coconut.
