- 3 None eggs
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar

- None None Icing
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 3/4 cup cocoa powder
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1 1/2 tbsp butter, melted
- 1/3 cup desiccated coconut
- 1/2 cup strawberry jam, warmed, strained
- 1 1/4 cups whipped cream
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0F. Lightly grease and line a 9 1/2 inch square cake pan with parchment paper.
- Whip eggs until frothy. Gradually add sugar, beating until thick and pale. Continue beating until mixture holds its shape, around 10 mins. Fold in flour, followed by 2 tbsp hot water. Transfer to prepared pan and bake for 20-25 mins, until cake springs back when touched lightly with a fingertip. Turn out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Trim edges. Cut into 2 1/2 inch squares.
- Meanwhile, to make the icing, sift powdered sugar and cocoa powder together. Add milk and butter. Heat over a double boiler, stirring, until mixture is smooth and runny. Set aside.
- Spread coconut over a shallow tray. Using a fork, dip each cake piece into chocolate icing, draining off excess. Roll in coconut to coat. Place on a wire rack and allow to set.
- Split lamingtons in 1/2 horizontally. Spread bottoms with jam and whipped cream. Sandwich with tops.
