These taste like brownies but are crunchy, chewy cookies. I usually have to make a double batch of these as my family enjoy them a little too much!
Ingredients:
125 ml sugar
250 ml flour
250 ml coconut
25 ml cocoa powder
2 ml baking powder
1 pinch salt
250 ml oatmeal (not instant)
125 g soft butter (1 stick + 1t)
2 ml vanilla extract
350 ml sifted icing sugar
10 ml cocoa powder
1 pinch salt
2 ml vanilla extract
15 ml butter
50 ml hot water
Directions:
1. BASE: Mix together, sugar, flour, coconut, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt and oatmeal.
2. Beat in butter and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined.
3. Press firmly into greased pan.
4. Bake at 350F for 20 minutes.
5. Cut into squares and leave to cool in pan before spreading with topping.
6. TOPPING: Beat icing sugar, cocoa, butter and vanilla together.
7. Add just enough hot water to make a spreading consistency-DO NOT use too much water or the icing will not set.
8. Spread over the base and re-cut squares when icing is set.
9. Remove from pan when cold.
