Mexican Margarita Trifle - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (18 ounce) box white cake mix, prepared according to package directions in a 9-inchx13-inch pan, and cooled
    1 (14 ounce) bag sweetened flaked coconut
    3 (14 ounce) cans sweetened condensed milk
    1 1/4 cups key lime juice
    3 cups heavy whipping cream
    3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
    1/4 cup tequila
Preparation
    In a large dry skillet, toast coconut over medium heat until browned and toasted. Cool completely.
    In a large bowl, whisk together sweetened condensed milk and key lime juice. Set aside.
    In a separate large bowl, whip heavy whipping cream with a hand mixer until it begins to thicken. Add confectioner's sugar and continue to whip until stiff peaks form.
    Cut cake into small chunks.
    Using a trifle dish (or any clear bowl), begin to layer the trifle. Start with a layer of cake (use 1/3 of the cake). Drizzle the cake with tequila, then pour 1/3 of the key lime mixture over it. Spread 1/3 of the whipped cream, and then sprinkle with toasted coconut.
    Repeat two more times.
    Chill in the refrigerator for two hours or until ready to serve.
