As promised here is my favourite recipe

Chocolate Coconut Bars

4oz butter
1/2 cup brown sugar firmly packed
1 cup coconut
1/2 cup plain flour
1/3 cup self raising flour
1 tablespoon cocoa
1 egg

Melt butter, stir in sugar, coconut, sifted flours and cocoa, then lightly beaten egg. Press mixture evenly into an 11 x 7 inch baking tray. Bake in a moderate oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until firm to the touch.

Icing

1 cup icing sugar
1 tablespoon cocoa
1 teasp butter
1 tablespoon milk

Mix all ingredients to make a nice thick paste

Spread icing mix over as soon as it is out of the oven and allow to stand for 10 minutes. You can sprinkle a little coconut on top if you wish
Slice into bars when cool
