My Lamingtons Recipe
with Toasted Coconut

These lamingtons are really good
and fairly easy to make since
I use store bought pound cake.
Might not be traditional because
I toast the coconut but ey' mate,
you don't has to toast it as I do.
How good are these? Really good!

Ingredients:
1 bakery-made pound cake
4 cups confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup milk
16 ounces flaked coconut, toasted

Directions:
In a large bowl, combine sugar and cocoa.
In a saucepan, heat milk and 2 teaspoons
butter until the butter is melted.
Add the milk to the sugar mixture
and mix well to create an icing.
Cut the pound cake into 24 - 4" squares.
Place coconut in a shallow container.
Using a fork, dip each square into the icing,
then roll it in the toasted flaked coconut.
Place onto rack over parchment paper to dry.
Continue for each piece of lamington.
After the icing and coconut is set,
split them in half and serve with
some fresh whipped cream in the middle.
