Cake "Duet" of chocolate cookies with custard coconut cream (without baking)

Today I will share with you a recipe for homemade cake "Duet". The cake turns out simply gorgeous: black and white in the cut, with a rich coconut flavor. Cooking a cake is easy, but you need to be patient and wait until the cookies are saturated with cream.

Ingredients

• Chocolate cookies ("Oreo" or other) - 450 g
• Milk - 500 ml
• Sugar - 200 g (1 cup with a capacity of 250 ml)
• Egg yolks - 2 pcs.
• Flour - 2 tbsp. spoons
• Potato starch - 2 tbsp. spoons
• Coconut flakes - 100 g (5 tablespoons)
• Butter (softened) - 250 g
• Vanilla sugar - 5 g (0.5 tsp)
• Optional (for decoration):
• Sweets ("Francesca" or "Raffaello") - 8 pcs.

Directions

1. Cooking cream. Mix the yolks with sugar using a mixer.
2. Add 0.5 cups of milk, flour and starch. Beat the mass with a mixer until smooth.
3. Pour the remaining milk into a separate container, bring to a boil and, stirring constantly, add the prepared mixture of milk, flour and starch.
4. Cook the cream, stirring with a whisk, until it thickens. Let the cream cool down.
5. Beat the softened butter with a mixer, gradually adding the cooled cream to it.
6. You should get a magnificent mass.
7. We mix coconut flakes into the cream (leave 4 tablespoons for sprinkling the cake).
8. Lubricate the bottom of the mold with cream (I have a culinary ring with a diameter of 20 cm). Alternate layers of cookies with cream. The top layer should be cream.
9. Cover the cake with cling film and refrigerate for a couple of hours or overnight.
10. Decorate the top and sides of the cake with coconut flakes.
11. For decoration, I also used sweets (you can take "Francesca" or "Raffaello", but this is not at all necessary).
