Giving credit where it’s due – this is my grandmother’s recipe. She used to make it often when we were kids, and it was one of the things we specifically requested.
Awesome with a glass of milk (but then, what dessert isn’t?).
Ingredients – slice:
- 1 & 1/2 cups desiccated coconut
- 1 & 1/2 cups self-raising flour
- 1 cup icing sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa
- 250g butter, melted
Ingredients – icing:
- 3 tbsp icing sugar
- 3 tsp cocoa
- 2-3 tsp water
Method:
- Preheat oven to 180ºC
- Line a 12″ x 9″ slice tin with baking paper
- Place all dry ingredients in a bowl and mix together
- Pour melted butter over dry ingredients and stir to combine
- Press into tin and bake for approx. 20 minutes
- Leave in tray to cool
- Combine all icing ingredients and mix together
- Whilst slice is still slightly warm, spread icing on top and sprinkle with more coconut
Om-nom-licious.
