Recipe Ingredients:

• 4 packs of Maizena cookies, traditional or chocolate-flavored
• 2 cans of sweetened condensed milk
• 1 1/2 tablespoons of cornstarch
• 1 can of heavy cream
• 1 package of shredded coconut
• Milk (enough to soak the cookies)
• 1 egg yolk

Instructions:

The Creamy Filling:
First, in a saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, cornstarch, and heavy cream.

Then, place over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and forms a smooth cream.

After that, remove from heat and allow the cream to cool completely.

Assembling the Cake:
Start by arranging a layer of Maizena cookies slightly dipped in milk in a glass dish.

Next, spread the cooled cream on top and sprinkle with shredded coconut.

Afterward, repeat the layers, alternating cookies and cream, until all ingredients are used.

Finally, top with a layer of cream and more shredded coconut.

The Golden Decoration:
Then, in a small bowl, beat the egg yolk with a fork.

Using a culinary brush, lightly coat the final layer of shredded coconut with the beaten yolk.

To finish, refrigerate the cake for at least 2 hours, allowing the cream and cookies to set firmly.

Extra Tips:

• For a richer flavor, use chocolate-flavored Maizena cookies.
• If desired, add chopped fruits to the cream, such as strawberries, peaches, or pineapple.
• Replace shredded coconut with chocolate shavings or sprinkles for a special touch.
• Decorate the cake with cherries, whipped cream, or colorful sprinkles for an even more appealing presentation.
