How would you make this?

[OutOfRoutine]

DH got this deliciousness from a bakery. It looks like it should be easy to make but I'm not a baker so thought I'd ask you all!

It's a crispy coconut base with chocolate on top. However the coconut bit isn't like a macaroon which is usually soft and squishy and a bit sickly sweet which I don't like, this is just crispy browned coconut.

Any ideas? How would I bind the coconut bit?

I'd try a dry coconut ice type mixture and bake in hot oven like cookies.

My DM used to make something like these. I'm just off to bed soon, but I'll see if I can find a recipe for you tomorrow

Is it a florentine? The chocolate Can bé spread on thé underneath after the biscuity bit has been cooked

Thank you! No not a florentine it is a bit like a thin crispy coconut cookie with chocolate on it!

Is it a coconut macaroon? But flatter?

Maybe a bit like a flattened version of a coconut pyramid? They go golden and crunchy if you bake for 12-14 mins at 170 degrees. I guess if you flattened them you'd get all crispy and no squishy middle.

40 g icing sugar
75 g desiccated coconut
2 level teaspoons cornflour
