- Haven't heard of the song "Here we go round the Lamington Plate". Is it in tune to "Here we go round the mulberry bush" My daughter has read the book
- "Possum Magic" and she loves it too. She's 10 and has liked which for years too.
- Cream butter and sugar till light and fluffy. beat in Large eggs one at a time, beating well between each addition. Mix in sifted flour alternately with combined lowfat milk and vanilla. Pour mix into a greased 18 x 28 cm lamington tin. Bake at 180 centigrade (this equals 350 fahrenheit) for 30 to 40 min. Turn onto a cake rack to cold.
- Make the cake a day or possibly two before cutting and icing the lamingtons, as fresh cake will usually crumble (the recipe says, not me!) Cut the cake into 5cm (2") squares.
- ICING: Pour boiling water over butter, add in cocoa and mix well. Beat in icing sugar till mix is smooth. Using a long pronged fork, dip each piece of cake into chocolate icing and then roll in coconut. Leave to set on a cake rack.
