This White Chocolate Coconut Shortbread with Vanilla Custard combines two luscious components: a silky, white chocolate-infused vanilla custard and a tender coconut-tinged shortbread. The custard—thickened with cornstarch and enriched with white chocolate and butter—offers a delicate sweetness and a creamy texture. The shortbread base, made with both wheat and coconut flours, delivers a subtly nutty flavor and a satisfyingly crumbly bite. Baked until golden, these treats are perfect for afternoon tea, elegant dessert plates, or a comforting sweet snack.
