2 cups sifted flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2 squares (2 oz.) chocolate
1/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup hot water
3/4 cup shortening
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3 eggs
2 tbl. milk
1 cup shredded coconut
1 tsp. vanilla

Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Melt the 2 squares chocolate with the 1/4 cup sugar and the hot water in the top of a double boiler. Cool. Cream the shortening and sugars.
Add the eggs and milk; beat well. Blend in the dry ingredients gradually and mix well. Add the coconut and vanilla.

Spread the batter into a well greased 15 by 10 inch shallow pan, or 2 9 by 9 inch pans.
Pour the chocolate mixture in a thin stream over the batter in the pan in a close diagonal pattern; then cut through the batter with a knife in the opposite direction to give a marbled effect.
Bake at 375* for 25-30 minutes. Cool, and cut into bars.
