Ingredients

125 gram Butter-chopped
.5 cup Brown sugar
1 tsp Vanilla essence
2 tbsp Cocoa powder
1 Egg-lightly beaten
250 gram Arrowroot biscuits-roughly chopped
2 tbsp Desiccated coconut
Icing
2 cups Icing Sugar (Sifted)
.3 cup Cocoa powder
50 gram Butter, melted
2 tbsp Milk

Directions

Prepare a slab pan that’s about 15cm x 25cm and at least 3cm deep by lining it with baking paper. Leave an overhang so the slice is easy to remove later.
In a saucepan on medium-low heat, combine the butter, sugar, vanilla and cocoa powder. Cook, stirring now and then, for about 4 minutes or until butter has melted and mixture is combined. Set aside to cool.
Once cooled, add the beaten egg to the chocolate mixture and whisk to combine. Then replace saucepan over low heat and cook, constantly whisking, for 10 minutes or until the mixture is thick, glossy and smooth. Pour this into a large bowl.
To this bowl add your chopped biscuits and stir, then spoon into the prepared pan and smooth the surface flat. Cover and pop in the fridge to set for 2-3 hours.
Make the chocolate icing by mixing the sifted icing sugar and cocoa powder together in a bowl. Add the butter and milk, then stir until smooth. Once the slice has set, spread the icing over the top, and sprinkle with coconut if desired.
Slice and serve.
