    | 1. FOR THE COOKIES: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F & grease 2 cookie sheets. | 2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened butter & the brown sugar until light & creamy, then add the egg & vanilla, continuing to beat until well mixed. | 3. In another bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa, baking powder & salt, then stir this dry mixture, along with the coconut & cornflakes, into the creamed mixture. | 4. Scoop tablespoonfuls of the batter onto the prepared cookie sheets. | 5. Bake for 15 minutes or until the cookies are firm to the touch. DO NOT OVERCOOK them, as they will burn. | 6. Cool on a metal rack before making the icing. | 7. FOR THE CHOCOLATE ICING: When cookies have cooled, in a small bowl, stir together the butter, cocoa & hot water, making a smooth paste. | 8. Sift in the powdered sugar & stir to make a thick, spreadable icing. | 9. Ice the cooled cookies & if desired, top them with chopped walnuts.
