    1. Pour the milk into a saucepan and add the sugar, potato starch, flour, and a little vanilla.
    1. Whisk the mixture until smooth, breaking up any lumps, then set the pan over the heat. Cook over low heat until thickened (it only takes about 2 minutes) and your pastry cream is ready. If any lumps form, press the cream through a sieve. Transfer it to a separate bowl.
    1. Beat the softened butter into the cooled cream, working it in with a spoon. The cream will change texture right away — becoming lighter and fluffier.
    1. Spread a spoonful of cream over the bottom of a suitable dish and smooth it out, then add the first layer of cookies. Spread generously with dulce de leche and top with a second layer of cookies. Spread the remaining cream evenly on top, then add another layer of cookies.
    1. Pour the well-chilled cream into a mixer bowl and whip thoroughly. The key is to start on low speed — otherwise the cream can break and won't whip properly. Once it's fluffy and holds its shape, add the powdered sugar and whip again.
    1. Cover the cake with the whipped cream and sprinkle with shredded coconut. Refrigerate for 3–4 hours to let it soak in (overnight is ideal).
  • And that's it! Slice the cake and dig in — it looks gorgeous and so inviting!
  • Enjoy every bite!
