Lemon and Coconut Slice

I really love the sweet and sour combination of this slice as it's not overly sweet and it's not extremely sour and the coconut is just icing on the cake.. or slice in this instance. This is a great afternoon snack or dessert that pairs really well with a pot of tea, or another piece of slice.
