  1. Preheat oven to 180C/355F. 
  2. Line a 8" baking pan with baking paper, also covering the sides and set aside.
  3. Add flour, icing sugar and butter to a food processor and pulse until a soft dough forms (all of the butter should be mixed through). 
  4. Press your base mix into the bottom of your prepared pan, forming an even layer.
  5. Bake the base for 15 minutes or until lightly golden. 
  6. Set aside base to cool slightly. 
  7. In a mixing bowl, mix your caster sugar, eggs, lemon juice, lemon zest and 3/4 of your coconut, mixing until combined.
  8. Pour lemon mixture on top of your cooked base and sprinkle the remaining coconut on top. 
  9. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and set. 
  10. Leave to cool before slicing and serving. 
  11. We like to serve this slice chilled, chilling the slice after it has cooled and then slicing. 
  12. This slice will keep for 2-3 days in the fridge in an airtight container.
