milk, beating after each addition just until well blended. Then stir

coconut.

when lightly touched with finger. Cool 5 minutes in the pans, turn

whipped cream. Refrigerate until served.

salt. Slightly beat eggs, gradually add scalded milk, then slowly
stir into sugar mixture. Cook over boiling water for 8 minutes
stirring constantly. Cool, stirring occasionally. Add almond and
vanilla extracts. Fold in heavy cream, whipped. Refrigerate until

Notes:

~ It’s easier to chop the choc. chips if you chill them first.

For three-layer cake, double all ingredients in custard filling
except use only one egg. Make one set, then a second set of cake
layers (fourth cake layer can be split, filled with some whipped
cream and eaten separately). Increase heavy cream for frosting to 1
1/2 cups.
