1Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease 36 1 1/2 tablespoons (30ml) capacity mini muffin pans. Use an electric mixer to beat the butter and half the sugar together in a medium bowl until pale and creamy. Add 1 egg and beat until well combined. Add the flour, cocoa powder and desiccated coconut and stir to combine.

2Spoon mixture evenly among the prepared pans. Use your fingers to push the dough around the base and halfway up the side of each pan. Bake in preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until cooked through. Remove from oven and set aside for 5 minutes to cool slightly.
