Lamingtons with a twist

A lamington is a dessert of Australian origin. It consists of squares of sponge cake coated first in a layer of traditional chocolate sauce, then in desiccated coconut.As per the traditional recipe the chocolate sauce is prepared with cocoa powder but this recipe has a twist to it. As a true lover of chocolate i just love a simple pure chocolate genache. Every chocolate lover just has to have this atleast once to understand how addictive a lamington is…
