In a large bowl mix together the dry ingredients.

Melt the butter in a separate bowl. Beat 1 egg again in a separate bowl. Add the butter and egg in with the dry ingredients, mix well.

Press the mixture flat into a small rectangular oven tray. (You could be more creative and press into a star shape tray.) 180'c moderate oven. Bake for 10-15 min.

While base is cooking make the icing. Combine confectioners' sugar and unsweetened cocoa with a bit of hot water. Then add the vanilla.

Once the base is cooked leave it in the tray to cool for 5 min.

Pour icing over the base and put in the fridge to go hard.

Cut up the chocolate slice into squares and serve on a plate with some vanilla ice cream.
