Ingredients

1/2 cup margarine
1/4 cup sugar
4 tablespoons sifted cocoa
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups graham wafer crumbs
1 cup desiccated coconut
1/4 cup margarine
3 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons custard powder
2 cups icing sugar

Steps:

First make the base by placing the margarine, sugar, cocoa, egg and vanilla in a double boiler.
Cook over a low heat until well mixed.
Add in the graham crumbs and coconut, then spread and press into a pan.
For deep squares use a 9 inch square pan and for thinner ones use a 9 x 13 inch pan.
Beat together the filling ingredients until creamy.
Spread on the base and chill.
Meanwhile, prepare the topping.
Either melt a bar of chocolate with 1 tsp butter or use your favourite chocolate icing.
Spread on top of the chilled filling, chill again and then cut.
