Description
Make this classic Aussie treat at home with our easy lamington recipe. These fluffy chocolate, coconut and cherry delights are bound to fly off the table.
Method
Step 1 of 7
Preheat oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Grease a 20 x 30cm lamington pan. Line base and sides with baking paper, extending paper 5cm above edges.
Step 2 of 7
Using an electric mixer, beat eggs and sugar in a large bowl on high for 10 minutes or until thick and creamy.
Step 3 of 7
Meanwhile, triple sift flours into a separate medium bowl. Stir butter, vanilla and 2 tbs hot water in a small bowl until melted.
Step 4 of 7
Sift flours over egg mixture. Add butter mixture, then, using a whisk, gently fold until incorporated. Pour into pan and smooth top. Bake for 25 minutes or until a skewer inserted into centre comes out clean. Stand in pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. Cut cake into 15 squares. Place on a baking paper-lined tray and freeze for 1 hour.
Step 5 of 7
Meanwhile, to make the chocolate icing, whisk all of the ingredients and 1 cup boiling water together in a large bowl until smooth and combined.
Step 6 of 7
Place coconut in a shallow bowl. Using 2 forks, dip 1 piece of cake in icing. Shake off excess, then toss in coconut. Place on a wire rack over
a baking tray. Repeat with remaining cake, icing and coconut. Stand for 20 minutes or until set.
Step 7 of 7
Halve lamingtons horizontally. Spread half of the lamingtons with jam and top with cream. Sandwich with remaining lamington. Serve.
