together and leave to stand for 1 hour.
2.Then cook very slowly
until sugar dissolves.
3.Add the margarine or
butter in small pieces and when melted bring the mixture to the boil.

5.Remove from heat and
add the vanilla essence, chocolate and coconut.

thick and creamy, then pour into a well greased tin. When cool and set cut into
small squares.
