⅔cupsicing sugar,powdered
¼cupcocoa powder
¼cupwarm water,or boiling
½cupdesiccated coconut,or finely shredded coconut

Preparation
Whisk eggs and milk together in a wide shallow dish. Add one piece of bread at a time to soak in the egg mix.
Heat a lightly buttered pan over medium heat. Fry each bread until golden on each side and cooked through. Repeat with each slice.
In another shallow dish, whisk together the icing sugar and cocoa powder. Add the warm/boiling water and mix until a thick chocolate sauce-like icing forms.
Prepare a separate shallow dish with the coconut and set aside.
Dip each french toast into the chocolate icing until all sides are evenly covered; allow any excess icing to drip off, then place each chocolate covered french toast into the bowl of coconut, turning to evenly cover.
Sprinkle coconut over the top to get a good coating.
Combine the jam and water in a serving jug, and whisk until a syrup forms.
Drizzle the jam syrup over the top to serve!
