  12. Cool for 5 minutes before turning out onto rack to cool completely, then freeze for 30 minutes before cutting.
To Ice
  1. Put butter and milk into mixing bowl and cook 2 min/80 C/speed 2..
  2. Add sugar and cocoa and blend for 20 - 25 sec/speed 4.
  3. Sprinkle coconut onto a tray, and pour icing into a bowl.
  4. Dip the cake pieces into the icing and make sure it's totally coated. Put the cake onto the coconut, and toss it around so that it all is covered by coconut. If you hold it, it doesn't receive an even coating.
  5. Place on a stone tray or in a glass bowl and leave to set.
