Coconut squares / Lamingtons

For the cake:

250 g butter

3/4 cup sugar

1 cup sour cream

pack vanilla sugar (16 g)

Place all ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to boil. Mix until the butter melts. Cool down.

Additionally:

2 ½ cup plain flour

2 heaped tsp baking powder

3 eggs

2 egg yolks

All ingredients should be at room temperature. 

Add 3 eggs and 2 yolks into the cooled butter mixture and mix until smooth. Add sifted flour and baking powder, stir.

Line a 32 x 22 cm baking tin with baking paper and fill it with the batter. Bake at 170ºC for about 30 - 40 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.  

Let it cool and cut it into squares (I got 32 pieces).

For the chocolate glaze:

125 g butter

1 cup sour cream

10 tablespoons sugar

3 - 4 tablespoons cocoa powder

Bring all ingredients to the boil until the butter melts completely and until smooth.

Additionally:

300 g shredded coconut

Cover each square with the chocolate glaze (using some cutlery as it gets messy ;-), then cover them in coconut and set aside on a plate.

Enjoy!
