Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Coconut Base

Spread shredded coconut evenly on a large tray. This will coat the rolls later, adding a delicious crunch.

Step 2: Make the Custard

  1. In a large pot, whisk together milk, sugar, and flour until smooth.

  2. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.

  3. Once thickened, add butter and vanilla, stirring until creamy.

  4. Pour the custard over the coconut-lined tray and spread evenly.

Step 3: Chill the Custard

Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or until firm).

Step 4: Whip the Cream

  • Mix cold milk with whipped cream powder until fluffy.

  • Alternatively, whip fresh cream until stiff peaks form.

  • Spread evenly over the chilled custard layer.

Step 5: Roll & Garnish

  1. Cut the dessert into 12 even pieces.

  2. Roll each piece into a cylinder, coating it with the shredded coconut from the tray.

  3. Sprinkle crushed walnuts on top for extra crunch.

Step 6: Serve & Enjoy!

Serve chilled. For extra indulgence, drizzle with chocolate or caramel sauce.
