Earlier today, I opened a tin of coconut milk for the Sweet Potato Soup, needed to make something to use up the coconut milk and as we ate the last of our blueberry oaty rock cakes today, I used some of the milk to make cakes, the rest of it will go into making a frosting when the buns have cooled.

Speckled Buns, with chocolate, coconut and banana

60 gr caster sugar
60 gr soya margarine
2 bananas
100 gr self raising flour
6 dessert spoons coconut milk
1 teaspoon baking powder
40 gr dark choc finely grated

Turn your oven on to 180C.

Cream the sugar and fat together.  Mash the two bananas in to the mixture - don't worry if it starts to look like it's going to curdle.  Add the flour and baking powder. Add the coconut milk.Mix together and then mix in the grated chocolate.  Put the mixture into bun cases.  This is enough mixture for 18 small buns.
Bake for 15 mins. Cool on a wire rack.

Frosting:
15g icing sgar
15g cocoa powder
coconut milk - I just used enough to mix it to the consistency I wanted
50g dark chocolate, melted

Sift the icing sugar and cocoa powder, add the coconut milk a little at a time.you can use the frosting as is or if you want a richer taste, melt the chocolate and add it in.
