Instructions
- Slice – Preheat your oven to 180°C.

- Add 1 cup coconut, 1 cup oats, 2 cups self-raising flour, and 1 tablespoon cocoa to the bowl.
- Pour in 1/4 cup almond milk and mix with a spoon until a dough forms.
- Press the mixture evenly into a greased 40 cm x 27 cm flat pan.
- Bake for 20 minutes.
- As soon as it comes out of the oven, pour the prepared icing over the hot slice.
- Let cool completely before cutting into slices.

- Spread evenly over the hot slice straight from the oven.
Hints & Tips
- Press the slice firmly – This helps it hold together better once baked and cooled.
- Don’t overbake – Keep an eye on it to prevent drying out; it should be soft and chewy.
- For a richer chocolate flavour – Add an extra tablespoon of cocoa to the slice mixture.
- Use fine desiccated coconut – This blends better into the slice for a smoother texture.
- Store in an airtight container – Keeps well for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
