Looking for a recipe for this slice that has a biscuit base, jam in the middle and a coconut topping.Not Louise cake as that is more meringuey!Anyone know what i'm on about???

The topping would be made using whole egg, not just the whites. We used to make that because proper Louise, was too messy to cut. The other one had a little almond essence, and water added, and was a lot more moist. Maybe that is what you are thinking .

Do you mean something like this http://cornercafe.wordpress.com/2010/06/16/jamaican-slice/ I tried a slice like this from a bakery one day and it is to die for. I haven't made this particular recipe but I fully intend to. And when I do I will omit the rum essence. You could omit the sultanas.
