Steps

1

In a bowl, mix the semolina flour, shredded coconut, and cocoa powder well.
2

In a saucepan, combine the sugar, butter (or ghee), honey, and milk. Heat until the sugar dissolves, then remove from heat. Pour this mixture over the semolina mixture and stir well—do not knead.
3

Grease a baking pan with ghee or butter. Spread the mixture evenly in the pan and smooth the top. Bake in a preheated oven at high heat for the first 10 minutes. Then reduce the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C) and continue baking until set.
4

As soon as it comes out of the oven, pour warm medium-thick syrup over the basbousa. Return to the turned-off oven for 5 minutes, then let it cool completely.
5

Cut the chocolate basbousa into squares. Garnish with chopped peanuts or any available nuts, and serve.
