Directions

  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.
