Como fazer Lamingtons

Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Grease and flour a 20x30cm lamington tin.
Cream together the softened butter and caster sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.
In a separate bowl, sift together the self-raising flour and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Stir in the vanilla extract.
Add a little more milk if necessary to achieve a soft dropping consistency.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared tin.
Bake for 25-35 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cake cool in the tin for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the icing, sift the icing sugar into a bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the cocoa powder and boiling water until smooth.
Gradually add the cocoa mixture to the icing sugar, adding more boiling water if needed to reach a pourable consistency. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Once the cake is completely cool, cut it into uniform squares.
Dip each square into the icing, ensuring it's fully coated.
Immediately roll the iced cake squares in the desiccated coconut until fully covered.
Place the lamingtons on a wire rack to set for at least 30 minutes before serving.
