Hello from Australia. This recipe is a quick and easy slice that we make to have with coffee or as a sweet treat. It is probably a variation of an American brownie recipe.

- 1 cup cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon melted butter

Sift flour and cocoa powder into a large bowl, add brown sugar and dessicated coconut, stir in melted butter and mix until well combined.
Press into a shallow slice tray (7 by 10 inches) and bake in 350 degee oven for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and and allow to cool before icing.
To make icing:

Great recipe for kids and adult treat time. Easy to make. I would recommend telling people that the mixture appears quite dry before baking. I have actually made it a gluten free recipe by using gf product. – Reviewed by Melinda Chandler
