Directions:
- Preheat oven to 190°C Line 2 20cm square baking tins.
- Whisk eggs and sugar in a double boiler making sure the water does not touch the bowl. Beat for 5-10 mins or until warm, pale and frothy.
- Transfer to an electric mixter adding vanilla paste and whisk on high speed for 8-10 mins or until mixture has tripled in volume.
- Divide flour into 3 and gently fold each portion through the egg mix. After the second batch of flour add the melted butter then add the final batch of flour.
- Divide between the 2 baking ins and bake for 20 minutes Remove from oven and leave to cool in tins for 10 mins before turning out onto cool rack.
- For the chocolate coating combine the chocolate and cream in a double boiler and gently melt the chocolate, stirring to combine. Remove from heat.
- Cut each sponge into 16 squares. Scatter coconut over a tray.
- Using a fork dip the sponge into the warm chocolate, shake of excess and then roll in coconut. Place on cake rack and finish dipping remaining cakes.
- If chocolate starts to thicken too much place on stove again and reheat slightly.
- Let the Lamingtons sit for 1 hour to allow chocolate to set.
- Alternative: Slice the whole cake in half horizontally, spread with a berry jam, sandwich back together, cut into squares then coat in chocolate and coconut.
