Preheat oven to 175° and line one lamington tin with baking paper. Grease and flour the baking paper. Whisk the sugar and eggs together until light and thick. Whisk in the coconut and gently fold in the flour in batches. Stir in the butter and pour into prepared tin. Bake for 20 - 25 mins or until springy to the touch. Allow to cool in the tin before turning out onto a cooling rack. Beat cream with coconut liqueur until soft peaks form. Cut cooled sponge in half widthways. Spread one half with jam and cream. Place remaining sponge on the top. Cut sponge into 8 cm squares. In a small bowl combine sifted cocoa, icing sugar and butter. Spread evenly over all sides of the lamingtons and sprinkle generously with coconut.
