Just reading another thread bought back a memory of a cake I used to make. .
It was sort of between a cake and a slice . . chocolate mixture on the bottom and then a coconut mixture placed on it. . topped with the remaining chocolate mix. . and then baked.
It tasted very much like coconut ice. . and was lovely and moist.

With the original churchill slice recipe, the base was rolled out. The remaining chocolate mix was rolled out and spread with red jam and put on top of the coconut. Do this by rolling it out of greaseproof paper, so that you can transfer it to the bottom. Cook. Ice with chocolate icing sprinkled with fine coconut on top.
