To make the base simply combine the biscuit with milk, cocoa, rum and icing sugar so that you get a mixture which can be rolled out with a rolling pin. I have never measured these ingredients, always taste it and put more sugar if needed, and milk if it's too dry.

Spread out the grated coconut on a flat surface and roll out this mixture about 3mm thick, in a rectangular form

Stir the soft butter and the vanilla sugar (again to your taste), and spread it on the base

Then roll up and put in the fridge for an hour or so, then you can slice it
