  • Step 2 Place coffee powder in a small bowl. Add boiling water. Stir until dissolved. Set aside to cool completely.
  • Step 3 Grease 3 large baking trays. Mark 2 x 11cm x 20cm rectangles on 3 sheets of baking paper. Place, marked-side down, on prepared trays. Place chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on HIGH (100%), stirring with a metal spoon halfway through, for 1 minute 30 seconds or until melted and smooth. Using the rectangles as a guide, spread 1⁄6 of the chocolate onto each rectangle to form a thin layer. Refrigerate for 10 minutes or until set.

Spoon the plain portion of coconut dessert over base of prepared pan. Level with a spatula. Top with 1 piece of chocolate. Spoon over coffee mixture. Level with a spatula. Top with 1 piece of chocolate. Freeze for 1 hour or until rm.
