Baked Lamington Drops

I LOOOOVE lamingtons! I have made them the traditional way once, but that was the one and only time as the dunking in the chocolate was way too fussy for me! These are an easier alternative with the same amazing lamington taste! This is also perfect to bake with the kids as they are really easy to shape and roll in the coconut!
