Chewy Chocolate & Coconut Slice


This recipe is an OLD family favourite. The slice is so moist & it's been a huge hit with my kids - especially when the school fete rolls around.

  • 1 cup FIRMLY packed brown sugar
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup plain flour
  • 1/4 cup self raising flour
  • 2 tablesppons cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup shredded(not dessicated) coconut
  • 1 tablesppon coconut extra
  • Chocolate Icing:
  • 1 cup pure icing sugar mixture
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 20g melted butter
  • 1-11/2 tablespoons approx of very hot water

Method

  1. Grease a 19cm x 29cm rectangular slice pan, line base & 2 opposite sides with baking paper. Preheat oven to 180 degrees C.
  2. Combine butter, sugar, egg & vanilla in a medium bowl.
  3. Sift in flours & cocoa powder then add the coconut & mix well to combine.
  4. Spread the mixture over base of your tin - making sure to press the mixture into the corners.
  5. Bake in a Moderate (180 degree) oven for about 20minutes. Check after 20 minutes with a skewer - if it comes out clean, it's done.
  6. While slice is still piping hot, prepare your icing:
  7. Sift icing sugar & cocoa powder into a bowl, add combined melted butter & water & stir rapidly until icing is at a spreadable consistency - not too runny.
  8. Spread icing mixture over hot slice & sprinkle with extra coconut.
  9. Refrigerate until set - can take a couple of hours or more & once set, cut into bite sized squares or diamonds & serve.
