1/3 cup caster sugar
1/3 cup desiccated coconut
185g butter, melted
200g milk chocolate, melted
Caramel Filling:

125g butter
2 tablespoons golden syrup
1/3 cup liquid glucose
1/3 cup water
400g can condensed milk
Combine flour, cocoa, sugar, coconut and melted butter in a bowl; mix well. Press evenly into the base of a greased and baking paper-lined 19x29cm lamington tin. Bake at 180°C for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare Caramel Filling (see below).
