Method
- Preheat oven to 175°C. Grease and line a rectangular slice tin (19cm x 29cm) with baking paper.
- Beat butter, sugar, egg and vanilla in a bowl. Sift in flour, baking powder and cocoa and mix well, stir in coconut.
- Spread mixture into tin and bake for approx. 20-25 mins or until firm.
- Remove from oven and spread with Rich Chocolate Icing while slice is still hot, then sprinkle with extra coconut. Allow to cool before cutting - slice should be slightly chewy.
